Crystal Wheat is a preparation of wheat in which the entire kernel is preserved, the grain having been subjected only to processes of thorough cleaning, with- out the removal of any portion of the bran or the sac- rifice of any of its nutritive elements. In the process of manufacture the grain is exposed to a cooking heat for several hours, so that it is thoroughly cooked. The simple addition of water, with a little heat for a length of time sufiicient to give the particles an opportunity to absorb the necessary amount of moisture, is all that is necessary to prepare it for the table^ RECIPES.
