Frumenty
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole grain wheat
- 4 cup water
- 1 cup milk, or part milk and part cream
- 1 heaped tablespoon of brown sugar, or honey
- raisins (optional)
- stewed fruit (optional)
Instructions
In a large pot bring the water to the boil then add the wheat. Simmer until the wheat is soft enough to eat. Next morning add the milk (or the mixture of milk and cream) and the brown sugar or honey. Warm it up on the stove for a few minutes, stirring well, and then serve with dried or stewed fruit. Variation: Try cooking some rice with your wheat. Just remember though that the wheat takes longer to cook than the rice.)
