WHEAT BERRIES WITH SESAME, SOY SAUCE AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• In a 4- to 6-cup saucepan, combine wheat berries with a large pinch of salt and enough water to cover them by at least an inch. Bring to a boil and adjust heat so mixture bubbles gently.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until wheat berries are tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Add boiling water as necessary to keep wheat berries covered and to keep them from drying out as they swell and become tender. Wheat berries are done when tender with a slight bite to them; ideally you will have cooked out all the water at about the same time they are tender, but if any remains, strain them. (At this point you can drain berries and refrigerate for up to a few days, then reheat when ready to serve.)
• Fluff wheat berries with a fork and toss with sesame oil. To serve, drizzle with soy sauce and garnish with scallions.

SESAME WHOLE-WHEAT SODA BREADS

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together 2 cups of the whole-wheat flour, the all-purpose flour, the baking soda, the salt, and the brown sugar, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Stir in the oats and 1/4 cup of sesame seeds, add 1 1/3 cups of the buttermilk gradually, stirring, and stir the dough until it forms a ball. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, knead in just enough of the remaining 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour to form a soft but not sticky dough, and knead the dough lightly for 1 minute. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces, form each piece into a ball, and flattened the balls slightly. Transfer the balls to a lightly buttered baking sheet, brush the tops with the additional buttermilk, and sprinkle them with the remaining 1 teaspoon sesame seeds. Cut a 1/8-inch-deep X across each bread with a sharp knife and bake the breads in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are browned lightly and sound hallow when the bottoms are tapped. Transfer the breads to a rack and let them cool completely. The breads keep, wrapped well in plastic wrap and foil, chilled for 1 week or frozen for 1 month.
