Question
Elderly people soak small pieces of bread in milk or yogurt so they can eat it. The question is, what blessing is recited over the milk with the bread?
Answer
One should recite the blessing as for bread. However, it should be noted that if the bread is soaked in milk for a long time, to the extent that if it were soaked in water, the water would turn white, then if the pieces are the size of a kazayit, one recites 'Hamotzi', and if they are not the size of a kazayit, one recites 'Borei Minei Mezonot'. If the bread is soaked in a dessert that colors the bread, one should be stringent not to eat it from the point it is colored until the point the water would turn white.
