Ingredients

• 2 cups cleaned wheat
• 3 to 4 quarts water
• 1 cup cleaned poppy seed
• 1/3 cup honey
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup hot water
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

Step 1

Wash wheat in cold water and soak overnight in the 3 to 4 quarts of water. The next day, bring the water to a boil then simmer for 4 to 5 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The wheat is ready when the kernels burst open and the fluid is thick and creamy.
Chop the poppy seed in a food processor and set aside. Mix honey, sugar and hot water. Before serving, mix the honey mixture, poppy seeds, and chopped nuts and wheat. More honey can be added to taste
