NOTES : Wheatberries, whole grains of wheat, are generally soaked overnight

before cooking to reduce the cooking time, but if you have time to tend them on

the stove, you can start them from scratch with no soaking. Depending on the age

of the wheatberries, they can take 11/2 to 21/2 hours to soften. The cooked

wheatberries remain slightly chewy and give this salad a nice bite. Brazil nuts

were used in this recipe because they have a lot of selenium, but if you can't

find them, use another nut. Toss with fresh watercress or arugula if you like.

For a main-course salad, add crumbled feta cheese.
