Popped Wheat

To pop wheat:

Take wheat berries and soak them overnight (or boil them for an hour). Soaking overnight is much more energy efficient. Dry. Pop in oil in a pan. Cover the pan so that the berries don’t jump out! Dry on a towel to remove the excess oil. Flavor as desired (here is cinnamon sugar).
