Question

but wat beracha does one make on the salad? ha'adama? what about the croutons- they're hamotzi, and the fish - they're shehakol?

Answered by Aaron Abadi

It would depend on the salad. There is a main ingredient, and at times we cannot determine which is the main. In such a case, you find something else to make a Ha'Adamah on, and a cookie for Mezonot, and some cheese for Shehakol, or even a mushroom for that matter :). Just none of these items should come from the salad. It needs to be unrelated. AA
