Wheat Treats

 

Cooked Wheat Berries

Oil for Deep Frying

1 T. Water

1 C. Honey

 

Dry wheat berries well; rolling between a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible. In heavy kettle, or deep fat fryer heat vegetable oil to 360 degrees. Place a small amount of wheat berries into wire basket or strainer and deep fry into hot oil for 90 seconds. Drain on absorbent paper. Prepare glaze while heating oil. Boil 1 C. honey with 1 T. water until hard crack stage (300-310 degrees). If you drizzle it into a bowl of very cold water, it should form brittle threads that crack if you try and mold them. Drizzle honey glaze over fried wheat.
