PUFFED WHEAT TREATS

A homemade organic crunch is sometimes a craved desirable treat. Here's another alternative than popcorn or potato chips try this wheat treat. If allergic to wheat try an alternative grain. Most allergies to wheat started with the GMO grains to which, many have mold in them and no anti fungals properties to protect the plant and this rippling effect is back to your health, so be fussy.

Soak organic larger wheat in cold water for 24 hours, changing water once or twice during this period, or boil wheat for 30 minutes if in a hurry. This will triple in bulk.

Drain wheat and rinse. Roll on a cloth or absorbent paper towel to remove any excess moisture.

In a large heavy kettle, heat vegetable oil (Sunflower or seed oil is a good nutritional tasting oil.) to 360 degrees. These can be covered in a small amount of oil and baked on high, but don't leave the kitchen till the right crunch is desired.

Put a small amount of wheat (abt. 1 1/2 cups) in a wire basket or strainer and deep fry in oil for 1 1/2 minutes. Drain on a absorbent paper towel.

Season with salt or other seasoning as desired, (garlic, celery, onion, Cayenne, or sea salts. i.e. If you prefer other seeds, grains can be done using this same method...

If they don't turn out feed them to the birds, save and put them into your baking breads, cookies etc. Be imaginative and try another grains or use seeds like pumpkin etc.
