buckwheat

first tried to make a porridge, but it wasn't very good; our first attempt at making a "cookie" was dense, bland, and tasteless; we used the rest of the buckwheat to make more cookies with extra butter, honey, cinnamon, egg, and milk

Excellent taste, slightly crucnchy

Pearl Barley

ZEUS'S GARDEN

We mixed the pearl barley with mushrooms, onions, and cumin powder. We put the mixture on the stove in a vegetable stock and boiled for about 25 minutes until mostly soft. We plated the grain/vegetable mixture over a bed of spinach, and surrounded the plate with sliced tomatoes, olives, and a pinch of honey drizzled over the plate.

Tomato indig. to Mexico; cooking time too short

Delish...

Not as sweet as regular sugar cookies, but still good.
