BREAKFAST WHEAT BERRIES
Wheat berries sweetened with honey and perfumed with rose water and spices make a delicious breakfast on their own or stirred into yogurt (that's the way I prefer to serve this). Whether you use farro, kamut, spelt or wheat berries (and whether you are cooking them for breakfast or for dinner) the trick here is to cook the grains for as long as it takes for them to really soften and to splay (that is, to burst at one end).

Steps:
- The night before, combine wheat berries, 1 quart of the water and salt and bring to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 hour. Remove from heat, stir in the honey, agave syrup or sugar, rose water, anise or fennel seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg and raisins or dried fruit. Cover and leave overnight (or for 5 to 6 hours).
- In the morning, add remaining cup of water to the wheat berries and bring to a simmer. Cook 30 to 45 minutes, stirring often, until berries are soft and splayed at one end. There should be some liquid surrounding the wheat berries (add more water if necessary). Taste and add more sweetener if desired.
- Serve on their own with some of the liquid in the saucepan (stir in some milk if desired), or spoon about 1/3 cup yogurt into bowls and top with a generous spoonful of the berries, with some of the sweet broth. Top with a handful of chopped nuts and a few pomegranate seeds if desired.

WHEAT BERRIES WITH BROCCOLI
I thought what I had in my pantry was farro, a strain of wheat that is slightly softer than our North American wheat berries, but when I tried to make a farro risotto and the grains took forever to become tender, I figured the grains must be wheat berries. So I used what remained to make this dish, which is more like a pilaf.

Steps:
- Place the wheat berries in a bowl, and pour on enough hot water to cover by an inch. Soak for at least one hour, preferably overnight.
- Drain the wheat berries, retaining the soaking water. Add the soaking water to the stock. Add salt to taste. Place in a large saucepan, and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli, blanch for three minutes and transfer to a bowl of ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then drain and set aside.
- Bring the liquid in the pan back to a boil, and add the wheat berries. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer one hour, until the wheat berries are tender. Remove from the heat, allow the grains to swell in the cooking water for 10 minutes and then drain over a bowl. You will need some of the liquid later.
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes, and add the garlic and rosemary. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute, then stir in the wheat berries and the broccoli and heat through. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust seasoning.
- Scoop 1/4 of the cooking liquid you set aside from the bottom of the bowl, where the starch has settled. Stir into the wheat berries, along with the Parmesan and parsley. Heat through, stirring until the cheese melts, and serve.

BASIC COOKED WHEAT BERRIES
A very chewy grain that can be cooked on the stove top or in a slow cooker. Cooked berries can be stored in the fridge for two days or in the freezer for a month. No you do not need to pre-soak. While toasting can be skipped we feel it improves the flavor.

STIR FRIED WHEAT BERRIES
An interesting stir-fry found on the Wheat Montana website. Posted for a request, but have not made it myself. The addition of cooked chicken or beef could make it into a main dish.
