COCONUT-CURRY WHEAT BERRIES AND RICE
Wheat berries are one of the chewiest of all whole grains-soaking them overnight helps to soften them. They combine nicely with fluffy basmati rice in this Indian-inspired side dish.

Steps:
- Soak the wheat berries overnight in enough water to cover by 1 inch. Drain. Combine the wheat berries with 1 3/4 cups water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, adjust heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the wheat berries are tender but still toothsome, about 50 minutes. Let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Drain off any excess water. (Wheat berries can be cooked and refrigerated up to 3 days in advance).
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the curry powder and cayenne and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to coat. Pour in 1 cup water and the coconut milk; bring to a boil, lower heat to medium low, cover and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Uncover and add the cooked wheat berries and raisins (no need to stir). Cover again and let sit off the heat for 10 minutes.
- Stir in the cilantro, lemon juice and cashews. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Rinse the kamut, farro or spelt and cover with boiling water. Soak for 1 hour and drain (alternatively, soak overnight in water from the tap). Combine with 1 quart water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, add salt to taste (I use about 3/4 teaspoon), reduce the heat, cover and simmer 50 minutes, or until the grains are tender and just beginning to splay at one end. Drain off excess water (use for stocks if desired) and return the grains to the pot. Cover until ready to serve.
- Wilt the spinach: Blanch for 20 seconds in salted boiling water, steam for 1 to 2 minutes, or wilt in a dry frying pan in the liquid remaining on the leaves after washing. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, drain and squeeze out excess water, taking the spinach up by the handful. Chop coarsely.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until onion is tender and aromatic, 5 to 6 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute, and add the spinach, thyme and rosemary. Stir together for a minute, just until the spinach is coated with oil and infused with the garlic and herbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup of kamut or spelt into bowls or onto plates. Top with the spinach and onion. Drizzle on a little olive oil, top with walnuts and crumbled feta, and serve.

CURRY WHEAT BERRY SALAD
I'm posting several wheat berry salad recipes because I love wheat berries and especially in salads. I found this recipe on a Canadian living website. Sounds great but I haven't made it yet. They also said this salad can be made with barley. Plan ahead, wheat berries need to be soaked overnight and that time is not included in the prep or cooking time here.
