Kutia z Sushonymi Fruktamy - Ukraine traditional dish

🧂 材料

👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Cook the wheat: Combine the rinsed wheat berries and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the wheat is tender but still has a slight chew. Drain any excess water.
2
Prepare the dried fruits: While the wheat is cooking, soak the dried apricots, prunes, and raisins in warm water for about 15-20 minutes to soften them. Drain well.
3
Prepare the poppy seeds: If using whole poppy seeds, grind them using a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder until they release their oils and become a paste-like consistency. This step is crucial for releasing their flavor and texture.
4
Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked wheat berries, softened dried fruits, chopped walnuts, ground poppy seeds, and honey. If using, add the candied orange peel. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.
5
Chill and serve: Cover the Kutia and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a dessert or a festive dish.
