My genius Jackfruit and his incredible grains
I’m a bit of a health freak but JF is probably freakier. He believes that if one thing is good, mixing a bunch of good things must be even better. Maybe he is right.
Sometimes we have a mix of grains instead of rice. It sounds creepy but its actually pretty good! And its completely his invention.
Soak equal parts of the following:
Barley
Rye
Spelt
Wild rice
Bring to boil along with 2:1 parts of water
Reduce to a simmer and add in (faster cooking)
Red and white quinoa
Millet
Amarnath
Roasted buckwheat (kasha)
He also throws in some whole spices.
Cover and cook around 15 mins. Voila.
**Be sure to add in enough water in 2:1 ratio for the latter grains as well**
That actually sounds really, really good. JF, I’d suspect you’d love Muesli – look for it the next time you’re in a health store or European foods store (or Europe).
Guess what, we just bought some “made in switzerland” a couple weeks ago! Not sure how authentic but it was good!
It does sound really good. I’ve been thinking about an alternative to rice, but haven’t experimented with other grains yet… We’ll have to try this mix! thx for posting it
