Product Description:
When a seed is planted in the ground it grows from the roots down. It is with that much intention that we get connected to our ancient roots and bring protein-rich grains from farmland to table. Freekeh is an ancient grain rooted in the Middle Eastern tradition of roasting young green wheat.
The roasted grain has a nutty flavor and chewy texture that provider innovative meal options that are in demand.
Freekeh has a chewy texture and a nutty flavor that resonates with the plant-based foodie because Freekeh is a nutrient dense ancient grain. Freekeh is a good source of protein (6g per 40g serving) and fiber (4g per 40g serving) making it more nutritious than brown rice, bulgur, and similar grains.
When to Use Freekeh?
Freekeh is a versatile super grain that cooks perfectly in soups, pilafs, salads, stir-fries and stews, or can be stone ground into flour for baking purposes. Whether you are looking for plant-based vegetarian or vegan option, or to feature a unique grain in your culinary masterpieces; Freekeh is the smart choice.
How is Freekeh Cooked and Enjoyed?
