A rustic ceramic bowl of Israeli wheat berry stew sits on a wooden table. The stew is hearty and colorful, featuring tender wheat berries, great northern beans, halved potatoes, sliced onions, minced garlic, and green peppers, all simmered in a rich, spiced marinara broth. Garnished with fresh parsley and a light sprinkle of cumin, the dish is accompanied by a small loaf of crusty bread and a folded linen napkin. Fresh garlic cloves and green peppers are scattered around for added detail. Soft natural light highlights the vibrant colors and textures, creating a warm and inviting presentation.
