Ingredients
For the Salad:
- 5.5 cups water
- 1 cup wheat berries uncooked
- ⅓ cup brown rice uncooked, long-grain
- ½ cup barley uncooked; hulled or pearl
- ½ cup dried cherry or dried cranberry
- ¼ cup carrot diced
- ¼ cup celery diced
- ¼ cup parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 apple chopped, medium; unpeeled
- 4 green onion chopped, medium
For the Dressing:
- ⅓ cup honey
- ⅓ cup canola oil
- ⅓ cup cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons red onion grated
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce white wine
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
Instructions
For the Salad:
- In a large saucepan, heat water and wheat berries to boiling. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Stir in brown rice and barley, then cover and simmer about 50 minutes longer or until grains are tender. Drain if necessary.
For the Dressing:
- In a small bowl, whisk all dressing ingredients.
- In a large bowl, mix cooked grains and remaining salad ingredients. Pour about half of the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until chilled. Before serving, toss the salad again. If desired, drizzle more of the reserved dressing over the salad and toss again.
- If you have leftovers, the grains will continue to soak up the dressing. Simply add more reserved dressing as needed before eating. I never did use all of the dressing for this salad.
- The salad keeps very well refrigerated for several days.
