How do I make soticho at Christmas out of wheat? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. If desired and tasted, the amount of ingredients can be changed, in addition, something can be added, for example, some other dried fruits or fruits.

Wheat needs to be prepared in advance. Rinse the grain thoroughly, several times, until the water is clear. Fill it with cold, clean water to cover the wheat completely and leave it to rest overnight. If time does not allow, you need to soak wheat for at least a few hours.

Drain the water in the morning, rinse the wheat again and fill with a fresh batch of water. It is better to cook wheat in a saucepan with a thick bottom, since this cereal is cooked for a very long time. Water should be three times more grain. Add a pinch of salt to a pan of wheat. Bring the water to the boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan not tightly with a lid, and cook the wheat for about two hours.

While the wheat is cooking, we will prepare additives for soching. Food poppy should be washed well and steamed. To do this, put it in a saucepan and fill with water, put it on a medium heat. When the water boils, turn off the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and leave to stand for half an hour. Then drain the water, rub the poppy with a shove or blender.

Rinse the raisins thoroughly, pour over the boiling water and leave for 20 minutes to swell.

Wash walnuts, in the microwave or on a stove in a dry pan, dry them. Grind using a rolling pin or blender to the desired size.

When the wheat is cooked, a little liquid should remain in the pan with it, you do not need to drain it. Let the wheat cool a little.

Add the cooked poppy, raisins, walnuts and honey to it. Mix everything well. A pinch of salt can be added to improve taste.

You're ready for Christmas Eve! Serve the dish to the Christmas table. Enjoy your meal!
