Ooohhh. I have a problem with forgetting things on the stove. I feel for you! I’ve seen enough of blackened pots to last me a lifetime! Though I know I’ll probably be seeing more:) I have fewer problems now though since I discovered thermal cookers! I had no idea these things existed. I saw a used one for sale and had to try it. Now I only need to stand at the stove for 15 minutes or so and if my attention doesn’t waver in that time, nothing needs to get burned!

BTW, a tip for getting off the last of the soot is to scrub it with coarse salt.

So sad! Here is how I cook my wheatberries and they are perfect everytime. 1/2 to 1 cup of wheatberries. Rinse you berries and put them in a stainless steal thermos. Add 1 qt of boiling water put on the lid and let them sit at least 2 hours, but I leave mine overnight. Perfection in the morning. Hope this helps.:o)

Well, I would love your recipe for how to SUCCESSFULLY cook wheat berries (the ones that survived look good!). Every time I have tried, they are good, but not fully cooked.

What a colorful stirfry! I hate forgetting about food and burning it-not only do you have to start over and waste food, but the pot is a mess too.
