Precooked Wheat Berries

1. 1

   Set the wheat berries in a sauce pan, cover with the water and soak overnight.

2. 2

   The following day boil the berries in the same water for 20 minutes, if you want them parboiled only (to cook later on in casseroles or soups) or for 1 hour if you want them fully cooked.

3. 3

   Drain well and cool thoroughly.

4. 4

   Transfer the cooked wheat berries to a glass jar and store them in the refrigerator for 4 days.

5. 5

   Store them in the freezer only if you are going to use them in soups, stews or casseroles.
