It's time! It's been long enough that we've all gone without ashura cereal at home, and times are hard people... we need this, you need this!
With our new DIY kit you can recreate this favourite of Honey & Co breakfasts in your own home. Clusters of puffed wheat in honey, sweet spices & nuts – some call it crack, we call it ashura. Eat for breakfast, with yogurt and jam, or savour as an addictive afternoon snack. This kit makes enough to keep you in delicious breakfasts for a week (or for 7 people to enjoy together!).
Did you know: Ashura is a traditional Turkish dessert also known as Noah’s Ark pudding. The legend goes that, running low on supplies in the ark, Noah boiled together everything they had – dried wheat, beans, fruit, nuts, spices and honey. The whole store cupboard. The result is a very substantial dessert; a meal in itself, really. We use the same ingredients (minus the beans), but instead of boiling them we roast them to make a great alternative to granola. The puffed wheat keeps it light and is easier on your jaw than crunchy oats. Mentioned by Samin Nosrat in NYT Cooking.
Quantity: Makes a large full 2 litre jar of cereal with a little extra to snack upon.
