Mmmmm..... wheat berries. I crave these lovely things. Wheat berries are the entire wheat kernel. They are wonderfully chewy and chock full of fiber. I came across this recipe for wheat berry salad last year, and it has since become one of my favorites. When I snack on wheat berry salad at night instead of the ice cream and cookies that were also in my kitchen, you know it's got to be extraordinary!

The wheat berries before cooking. I bought them in the bulk section of a local food coop. |

The finished product. Wheat berries, dried cherries, toasted walnuts, celery, scallions... a textural treat for your tongue. |

Wheat Berry Salad
Now if my brother snacked on wheat berry salad at night instead of the ice cream and cookies, that would really be a testament! :)
ReplyDeleteI will vouch for it... it's wonderful. I have made it myself a couple time and will do it again, esp since you reminded me of it.
