Really curious, as I never came across this before. Wish I knew more Lubavitchers Smile

my lubavitch father only eats rice when he has washed hamotzei.

I learnt that you are supposed to say the brochos mezonos, hoadomo and shehakol on other food before you eat rice.

I don't know the pratim, but I do know we do some of the counting differently. I only learned lubavitch, but I do know it's different from the "rest" of the frum world.

Sheesh, Lubavitch seem to do everything differently. From the way we say Modeh Ani in the morning to the way we say Shema at night. (We say Modeh Ani with our hands together and IIRC our Kriyas Shema Al Hamitah is longer than other communities.)

The alter rebbe rules that there is a question on rice what exactly brocha it is. My teachers said, "the G-d fearing person washes and says hamotzi or says mezonos, hadama, and shehakol on other foods and has the rice in mind. If you're just having rice with nothing else, say shehakol."

My mashpia says, "Whatever else the rest of the frum world does, we do the opposite..." and then she elucidates all the things we do differently.

since it was locked after cc cookie's comment "I'm a woman, so I'm allowed to be moody whenever I feel like it (it's not me, it's the hormones...)", can we blame it on her?? perhaps the mods had an attack of
pms and were offended.

Technically, thats bdieved. I learned that the Alter Rebbe's Shulchan Aruch and the Sefer Minhagim say should wash and only eat rice in the middle of a meal, but if you cant then say shehacol..

I don't know what got me upset about this one. Maybe coming as it is at a time when there are so many posts that made my stomach hurt... and a cutesy, harmless thread was locked. Oh well.

Never take for granted statements you read by ONE lubavitcher. Ask others to clarify first.

I'm Lubavitch and we eat a mezonos and haadama and shehakol before eating the rice, making brochos on all those items to cover all bases.
Either that or after Hamotzie

MISTAKE??? That's what my kids used to say when I saw the wreckage in my house. Duh.

Can you find out, because once again, we're ignored.

Lubavitch makes a shehakol on rice? Live and learn! Rice is the one thing I never forget the bracha for -- mezonot -- because it's the only mezonot that the bracha achrona is borei nefashot.
