I’m on a recipe hunt again, this time for Grace Timberlake who is looking for a dish which includes chicken and farina.
“Many years ago an Armenian neighbor served a chicken dish that was very delicious. I believe it was served in a casserole dish. It was unlike any such dish I’d had before because it included farina. I’ve always hoped to run across such a recipe but have never had any luck when searching for it. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.”
I asked Grace to elaborate on the dish, if she could.
She wrote:
The closest recipe I could think of was herriseh (keshkeg) – chicken with whole wheat kernels, so I sent that along to Grace. She replied, “I’ve checked (your) recipe and it was definitely farina, not whole wheat kernels.”
Thank you!
