WHEAT BERRY BOWL WITH SALMON AND MISO SAUCE



Wheat Berry Bowl with Salmon and Miso Sauce image

We love the way the creamy miso sauce coats the chewy, toothsome wheat berries in this Asian-inspired bowl. For a time saver, cook off a large batch of wheat berries, freeze it in re-sealable bags for up to 1 month and thaw and reheat as needed.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 grain bowls (about 1 cup wheat berries each)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups wheat berries
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons white miso paste
1 tablespoon mirin
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
One 8-ounce salmon fillet (preferably with skin), cut into 4 equal pieces
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 cups very thinly sliced green cabbage (about 1/4 small head)
1 firm-ripe avocado, sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 sheets toasted seaweed snack, cut into thin strips
1 lemon, quartered into wedges

Steps:

  • Cook the wheat berries: Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add the wheat berries, and cook until plump and tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Drain the wheat berries, and transfer them to a medium bowl. Toss with the sesame oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Serve warm or at room temperature. (The wheat berries can be cooked and refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 days ahead. Microwave just enough to take the chill off, about 2 minutes, stirring about halfway through.)
  • Make the miso sauce: While the wheat berries cook, whisk together the mayonnaise, miso, mirin, vinegar and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until smooth.
  • Toast the sesame seeds: Swirl the sesame seeds in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until toasted and golden, about 3 minutes. Pour them into a small bowl.
  • Cook the salmon: Season the salmon with salt. Add the oil to the skillet, set over medium-high heat and heat the oil until it just starts to smoke faintly. Arrange the salmon, skin-side down, in the skillet. As the salmon cooks you'll see the dark orange flesh turn a paler orange. Once the lighter color reaches about 2/3 up the side of each piece, turn the salmon over; continue to cook for about 1 minute more (for medium-rare) for thicker pieces, 30 seconds more for thinner pieces. As each piece finishes, remove it from the skillet and transfer it to a plate.
  • Build the bowls: Evenly divide the wheat berries among 4 bowls. Make neat piles and/or rows of the cabbage, avocado and scallions. Top each with a piece of salmon and some miso sauce, a sprinkling of sesame and some seaweed-snack strips. Serve each bowl with a lemon wedge.

WARM WHEATBERRY SALAD



Warm Wheatberry Salad image

Wheatberries -- whole, unprocessed wheat kernels -- are available at any health-food store and should be soaked overnight to facilitate cooking the next day. They contain oils that turn rancid quickly. Be sure to refrigerate them in an airtight container.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup wheatberries
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup yellow onion, chopped
1 cup sliced white button mushrooms
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 teaspoons coarsely chopped fresh sage

Steps:

  • Place wheatberries in a strainer and rinse under cold water. In a large pot, combine wheatberries with 2 1/2 quarts salted water, and cook until al dente, about 50 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add onions, and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, and add white wine. Simmer until wine has evaporated, about 7 minutes. Add onions and mushrooms to wheatberries in a medium bowl. Toss with parsley and sage, and season with salt and pepper to taste; serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of wheat berries. Whole wheat berries, also known as hard red wheat, are the best choice for this salad. They have a slightly nutty flavor and chewy texture that holds up well to the other ingredients in the salad.
  • Soak the wheat berries overnight. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the wheat berries more digestible.
  • Cook the wheat berries until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked wheat berries will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the salad. This will add flavor, color, and texture to the dish. Some good choices include roasted broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, or sweet potatoes.
  • Make the maple soy vinaigrette ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the salad warm or at room temperature. This will help to bring out the flavors of the ingredients.

Conclusion:

Warm wheat berry salad with salmon and maple soy vinaigrette is a delicious and nutritious dish that is perfect for a healthy lunch or dinner. The wheat berries are a good source of fiber and protein, while the salmon is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. The vegetables add flavor, color, and texture to the salad, and the maple soy vinaigrette is a delicious and tangy dressing. This salad is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
