Agnes Z's Journal, 21 January 2024

A whole grain experiment: rye berries cooked and used in a red cabbage salad. Taste is good but the preparation was long and risky: the bag of organic rye was contaminated with some seed I had to pick out and I found the poisonous ergot there, too!

I have never tried it.

This was my first time cooking rye. Should have probably tried farro first—maybe the supply is cleaner because there is more demand for it(?). Anyone who has recommendations of good and reliable sources of whole grains, please share!

Buenita, I probably won’t try this again. Other whole grains are much easier to cook, and just as nutritious.

Okay Agnes Z thanks so much for at least sharing.

You know what, Buenita? I finished the last of the rye and cabbage salad today, and decided this stuff is worth the trouble! The fiber in it keeps me going for hours.
