What blessing is recited on dry legumes (e.g., dried beans) if eaten raw?

BlessingsBirkot HaNehenin

Synopsis

The Mechaber rules that legumes and fruits good both raw and cooked retain their blessing after cooking. The MB clarifies that wet/fresh legumes (eaten raw) receive Borei Pri Ha'adamah, but dried legumes not normally eaten raw receive Shehakol if consumed raw. The Magen Avraham confirms this.
