Wheat berries include wheat grain germ.
Wheat berries are whole wheat grains that have had their hulls removed. Like other whole grains, they provide a host of valuable nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and are often touted as a good addition to a healthy diet. Health food stores and some supermarkets sell them in a variety of packages, and finished food products made from these whole wheat grains, such as mixed-grain salads, are also sometimes available in markets.

The wheat berry includes the bran, germ, and endosperm of the wheat kernel. Depending on the wheat crop, the grains can range from tannin to red and are available in soft or hard forms. People use them in salads, add them to breads for extra texture and fiber, or use them as a starch in meals. Many producers offer organic options to consumers who prefer to eat organic food products. As the berries contain gluten, they are not safe for people with gluten intolerance.

The classic method of cooking them is to cover them with water, bring the water to a boil, and then let the water boil until it is completely absorbed. Cooked berries can be used in a variety of recipes or stored in the refrigerator for use over the next few days.

These whole grains have a chewy texture that will stay put even if overcooked and have a nutty flavor. The whole wheat flavor pairs with a wide variety of other flavors, including various cheeses, citrus sauces, or butter, salt, and pepper. Some people find the flavor a bit strong or overwhelming and may choose to mix the beans with other beans or use them sparingly so they don’t overpower the dish.
Wheat grain salad, traditionally served cold, is a very popular way of eating wheat grains. Various fruits and vegetables can be added to the grain to make a healthy salad, along with herbs such as basil, parsley, cilantro, or dill for added flavor. Mild vinaigrettes are a good dressing option for cereal salads, and cooks can also invent their own dressings to play with flavors and textures.
