Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Kutia


christmas, russian

1 cup whole wheat kernels
1/2 cup poppy seeds
1 cup honey; (clover or wild)
1/2 cup walnuts; chopped
1/2 cup raisins
1 pinch salt

Blanch the wheat with boiling water. Cover and let stand for about 1 hour. Pour off the water, then add enough cold water to cover about double, and cook, covered, over low heat until the kernels are soft, about 3 to 4 hours depending on the type of wheat. Strain and allow to cool. Blanch the poppy seeds with boiling water, allow to rest for 15 minutes, then drain. Add enough cold water to cover and reheat to boiling. Cook for a few minutes then drain the water again. Pour the seeds into a cotton towel and pat and squeeze dry. Then mash the seeds in a processor or blender until mixture turns from slate to milky. Combine the wheat, poppy seeds, and honey. Taste and season as needed with salt. Add the chopped walnuts and raisins. The consistency should be semiliquid.
