I use 1 cup of raw wheat berries to 1 cup of poppyseed which is scalded with boiling water then drained and ground in a coffee grinder before mixing with honey. I add approx 1/2 cup honey,some orange juice, a splash of marashino cherry juice, 1 cup of raisins, a little almond extract, but no water. Don't like it soupy. The top is decorated with marashino cherries and pecans. Better when it sits for a bit. Nice to know the tradition continues.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07353556719949576457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042011605147825151.post-2387142536483573962011-03-18T13:48:35.782-07:002011-03-18T13:48:35.782-07:00I'll vouch that it was good.

The problem for me was I felt some major cognitive dissonance eating something that tasted so incredibly delicious while at the same time taking like it was good for you.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00294712372961335162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042011605147825151.post-75939848553997313632011-03-13T23:05:10.096-07:002011-03-13T23:05:10.096-07:00I made this and it was wonderful!

I love the poppy seeds and almonds in it.

Eric has been doing Bulgarian foods lately - in fact he made a Bulgarian pizza last night, lutenitza (a cooked red pepper with other vegetables puree) with cyrena cheese (Bulgarian feta) on top.E Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11002189705876443220noreply@blogger.com
