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.

Steps:
- Cover the berries with the cold water and soak them overnight. (This will increase their volume threefold.) Drain and place in a lidded pot. Add 2 cups cold water or chicken broth, one teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook between 1 and 1 1/4 hours, until the berries are tender and have absorbed all the liquid. They will, however, still retain some crunch.
- Saute the onion in the butter until translucent. Add the curry powder and cook, stirring, to toast the curry powder and coat the onion evenly, about 1 to 2 minutes over low heat. Add the cooked wheat berries and combine well. Stir in 1/4 cup water. Put a lid on the pot, and steam over medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk, adjust the seasoning and serve immediately.
SUMMER WHEAT BERRY SALAD WITH CHIMICHURRI DRESSING
Chimichurri is an Argentinian tangy herb sauce that is traditionally served as a condiment for grilled meats. The zesty combination of parsley, cilantro, garlic and hot pepper livens up the earthy flavor of wheat berries, while the crisp cucumbers, juicy sweet corn and cherry tomatoes create a refreshing, light meal. You can substitute wheat berries with spelt berries, wild rice or Israeli couscous.

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.
