Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups wheat berries or pearl barley
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
4 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small fennel bulb, cut into 1/4-inch dice
4 medium cucumbers, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 celery stalks, cut into 1/4-inch dice
6 scallions, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
