I spotted some wheat kernels at the market yesterday, in the produce
area. They were packaged by the store in little 1 pound cups, 99
cents
per pound. I bought a package. Knowing that my neighborhood is the
Italian epicenter of my small city, I knew they were there for the
popular Italian Easter Pie made with ricotta and cooked wheat
grains.

That's "pastiera", also called "pastiera napoletana".

I recently had a Neapolitan friend write all about pastiera Napolitana
as a guest blogger. Hers was so superior to all others I'd tried, I
begged and she wrote.
