Categories     dessert

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound wheat berries
1 pound walnuts in the shell
2 cups granulated sugar
1 vanilla bean, grated
Peel of 1 lemon, grated
1/2 cup raisins, optional
1/2 cup poppy seeds, optional
1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped, optional
Confectioner's sugar

Steps:

  • Shell the walnuts. Soak the wheat overnight, covered with water about 1 inch above the grain. Put the pot with wheat on the stove and boil it for 2-3 hours on a very low simmer. There should be just enough water in the pot to keep the wheat from burning. Be sure that the heat is low and watch very carefully. Add water if necessary. Pour off water and rinse with cold water. Pour off all liquid. Spread the wheat berries out on kitchen towels and dry for 2 hours. Place the wheat berries in a food processor and grind them. Remove the wheat berries to a bowl and then grind the walnuts in the food processor. Mix the walnuts with the ground wheat. Add 2 cups granulated sugar, lemon peel, vanilla and the optional ingredients. Mound in a serving dish and sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.

RUSSIAN WHEAT PORRIDGE ~ KUTYA



Russian Wheat Porridge ~ Kutya image

While looking for recipes to submit for use in Culinary Quest, I kept coming across this one. This is a traditional Russian Christmas Eve dish. There are slight variations & this is the one I found most appealing. Others used walnuts instead of almonds, didn't call for cinnamon, etc. Prep time does NOT include the overnight soak of wheat berries. Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup(s) whole wheat berries
4 cup(s) water
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1/2 cup(s) poppy seeds
1/2 cup(s) slivered almonds
1/3 cup(s) honey
1/2 cup(s) raisins
- cinnamon, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Place wheat berries in a large pan with enough cold water to cover. Soak overnight.
  • The next day, drain wheat berries and refill pan with 4 c. water. Stir in salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 2 hours, or until wheat berries are tender. If water gets too low, add enough to cover wheat berries.
  • While wheat berries are cooking, soak poppy seeds in a small bowl of lukewarm water for 30 minutes. Drain seeds and grind in a food processor or coffee grinder. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Set aside to cool.

From natashaskitchen.com
  • Rinse wheat berries in cold water until water runs clear, then transfer to a bowl and soak overnight in lukewarm water, adding enough water to cover 2-inches above the wheat berries.
  • The following day, drain wheat berries, place them in a medium-sized heavy pot, cover with 4 1/2 cups of milk and bring everything to a boil over high heat. When milk starts to boil, reduce heat to low, cover with lid and simmer until wheat berries are very tender, 3 1/2 - 4 hours, depending on the quality of the wheat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Add more milk if needed to keep the wheat berries fully submerged (If you simmer over low heat, you won't have to add anymore milk).
  • While the wheat berries are on the stove, rinse 3/4 cups of poppy seeds thoroughly in a fine mesh sieve, drain well, and transfer to a medium sauce pan and add 3 cups water. Over medium heat, bring to a simmer (Don’t boil). Turn off. Cover with lid and let it sit for 30 min. Return to a simmer (don’t boil). Turn off. Cover and let it sit for another 30 minutes. Drain poppy seeds well through a colander or by keeping lid on and placing several layers of cheese cloth over lid to catch stray poppy seeds. Push the poppy seeds through a food grinder, using the fine grinding plate (You can also mill the poppy seeds in batches in a clean coffee grinder).
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Spread 2/3 cups of slivered almonds on a baking sheet and toast them for 5 minutes. Set them aside and reduce temperature to 325˚F.
