Ingredients

  • 1½ cup of einkorn
  • 3 cups of water
  • 4 fresh tomatoes (sliced into cubes)
  • 1 cucumber (sliced into cubes)
  • 2 onions (sliced into cubes)
  • 3 tbsp. minced parsley
  • 85 g feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

Method

  • For the making of this salad you may use:

- einkorn sprouts. You can make einkorn sprouts at home. Soak the grains in water for 4-6 hours and then pour the water out. Wet the grains regularly (2-3 times a day) and they should start sprouting after 2 days. Keep the sprouts in a cool place. Always rinse out before eating.

- einkorn soaked in water. You can soak einkorn in (warm) water for 12 hours and then put it in soups, salads, yogurt for breakfast etc.

- boiled einkorn. You can cook einkorn by letting it simmer for about 30 minutes, while stirring with a wooden spoon. Cooked einkorn can be added to any meal you would normally prepare with rice.

 Tip: Einkorn should be thoroughly rinsed before soaking or cooking
