Recipe of the Week: Nigerian Kamu

The following recipe for Nigerian Kamu (Cream of Wheat) is from SurvivalBlog reader Tammy S.  She says: “This is a simple and comforting breakfast food that can be made with just three of your standard storage foods. It is great to cheer you up on a cold morning.”

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (ground from your stored wheat.)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered milk
Directions
  1. Pour 2 cups of water into a saucepan.
  2. Heat on a hot stove until it boils.
  3. In a large cup or a small mixing bowl, add water to the whole wheat flour and mix it in. It should be fairly thick.
  4. Add to the boiling water.
  5. Reduce heat and stir gently until it is as thick as desired.
  6. Add the sugar, and stir it in.
  7. Remove from heat.
  8. Add the powdered milk, and stir it in.
SERVING

The Kamu can be further sweetened with a bit of brown sugar or maple syrup on top, if you have a sweet tooth.
