Wheat grains are widespread all over the globe. Here's a few recipes for cooking wheat:
Wheat with biscuits
Ingredients: 4/5 cup of wheat, 5 oz of plain biscuits (1 packet), 1 cup of ground walnuts, 1 cup of powdered sugar, cinnamon.
Preparation: Clean and wash the wheat several times in water. Submerge it in enough water so as to leave about an inch between the wheat and the surface. Let it come to a boil and keep boiling for 10 min after. Then rinse it and boil for 10 more minutes.
Remove from the stove, put a lid on, cover with a wool blanket and let it sit overnight. In the morning, the wheat will be swollen and will have taken in all of the water. To dry it well, lay it out over a towel. Then mix it with finely crumbled biscuits and walnuts. Sprinkle with the powdered sugar on top and decorate with cinnamon.
Sweet boiled wheat
Ingredients: 2/5 cup of wheat for boiling, 1 cup of chopped walnuts, 1/2 cup of raisins, 2 vanilla packets, 1 tbsp of cinnamon, powdered sugar.

Whisk the egg whites into a hard snow, pour them into the mixture for the pudding. Stir everything carefully with a wooden spoon. Pour the pudding mixture into a nonstick form and bake. Serve the pudding cut into pieces, generously sprinkled with powdered sugar.
If desired, you can add raisins and/or walnuts to the blend.
