Hi,
What is the
appropriate berachah for a slider eaten as an hors d'oeuvre?
If the
dough used to make the bun is kneaded with water, then the correct berachot are
hamotzi and birkat hamazon, regardless of the temporary nature of the snack.
One who will not eat an egg-sized quantity of bread should not recite "al
netilat yadayim" when washing.
If the
dough used to make the bun is kneaded primarily with pure fruit juice rather
than water, and the flavour of the juice can be tasted in the bun, and
one eats this only as a snack, then the berachah beforehand is mezonot, and the
berachah afterward is al hamichyah. It may be contended that one should also recite
separate berachot for the patty, because the patty is not considered an
accessory for the bun.
(Berachos
42a; Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 168:7; Shulchan Aruch haRav 168:11; Mishneh
Berurah 158:10, 168:33; Aruch haShulchan Orach Chaim 168:24; Shevet haLevi

Have a great day,
Mordechai
