We grew our own wheat in our garden last year and saved the wheat berries. I've had some wheat berry salads from the deli before, so I wanted to try making my own version :)

Steps

60 mins

1

Wash wheat berries and drain. Soak wheat berries overnight or 8 hours in about 800 ml water. Boil for 45 minutes or until desired softness. Drain and cool by running cold water over the wheat in a colander.
2

While wheat berries are cooking, steam or boil the corn and okra. Cook corn on the ear for about 7 minutes, cool in cold water and cut of the kernels with a knife. Cook okra for 2-3 minutes until bright green, immediately cool in cold water and slice into rounds.
3

Put the cooked wheat berries, corn and okra into a large bowl. Add vinegar, oil, mustard (optional) and salt & pepper to taste.
4

Taste and add more seasoning as needed. If the vinegar is to tart, add a dash of sugar or honey.
5

Last add chopped cilantro or parsley and toss. Enjoy!
