Yield Makes 13 cups (3.2 liters); 6 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup (210 g) wheat berries or spelt
1 large carrot, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut across into thin slices
2 medium parsnips, peeled, cut in half lengthwise and then across into 1/4-inch (.5-cm) slices
1 medium turnip, peeled and cut into thin wedges
2 large leeks, white part only, split in half lengthwise, washed well, and cut across into thin slices
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch (1-cm) cubes
3 medium ribs celery, peeled and cut across into thin slices
1/2 cup cup (40 g) celery leaves, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons coarse salt
1/2 cup (10 g) cilantro leaves
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium stockpot, bring the wheat berries and 13 cups (3.25 liters) water to a boil [for added flavor, replace some or all of the water with Garlic Broth ]. Lower the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 50 minutes, or until the wheat berries are almost cooked through, but not mushy.
  • Stir in the carrot, parsnips, turnip, and leeks. Return to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Stir in the sweet potato and celery. Simmer for 10 more minutes.
  • Stir in the celery leaves and salt. Simmer for 1 minute. Add the cilantro and simmer for 1 minute. Season with pepper.
