Wheat Berry Waldorf Salad

2 cups wheat berries

7 cups water

1 cup chopped walnuts

2 medium apples (or more), unpeeled, cored and chopped

1 cup raisins

1 cup finely chopped parsley

¼ cup apple cider vinegar

¼ cup apple juice

1 Tbl salt

½ tsp pepper

½ tsp ground nutmeg

½ tsp cinnamon

½  cup extra virgin olive oil

1/8 cup lemon juice

Directions

Soak the wheat berries at least 6 to 8 hours or overnight in water, covered by a couple of inches.  Drain the water and set aside the wheat berries.

In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the wheat berries to the boiling water and simmer, uncovered for about 50 minutes, or until they are totally cooked through.   

Wheat berries retain a firm, chewy texture when cooked. Drain the water and set aside the wheat berries to cool. 

After cooled, transfer the wheat berries to a large mixing bowl. Add the walnuts, apples, raisins, parsley, apple cider vinegar, apple juice, salt, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, olive oil and lemon juice.  Mix everything tho`roughly. Add more salt if necessary and serve.

Martha likes to prepare this at least a couple of hours before serving.
