Ancient Grains Whole Grain Spelt FlourOur farming industry and the American consumer has overlooked Spelt (dinkel) for decades. As a result, we have not seen the same attempts to modify or enhance the commercial viability of spelt grain or farro grain. The degree of gluten in Spelt has not changed in response to overwhelming demand.St. Hildegard SpeltToday, the composition of this ancient grain (or, farro whole grain) remains consistent with its ancient form during Hildegard of Bingen's time. This ancient grain offers lower exposure to gluten.Organic Spelt WheatModern harvesting techniques have resolved many of the challenges related to threshing Spelt, which naturally has a tough outer shell or hull. A tough hull leaves Spelt naturally better protected to thrive in a natural environment.Ancient Grains SpeltLike einkorn wheat berries, Spelt grains grow safely in their natural form. The strong hull also means the grain remains fresh and retains its nutrients longer after harvest.Spelt Berries for CookingThese dried berries organic can be used in soups and salads in their whole berry form. Also try as a substitute for rice, as spelt rice, spelt pasta, spelt orzo, or even as spelt tortilla.
Features
- ORGANIC & NON-GMO: Organic and Non-GMO certified Spelt, carefully sourced and packaged to standards inspired by the patron Saint of Spelt, Hildegard von Bingen.
- ANCIENT GRAIN: Modern cultivation and genetic modifications to wheat seeds have made gluten more prominent in many of the foods we eat. Spelt retains its original integrity.
- GLUTEN: The gluten in Spelt is more fragile and water-soluble than that of wheat. The different gluten structure makes Spelt a reasonable alternative for people with mild gluten sensitivity.
- IMMUNITY: The water-soluble plant-polysaccharides in spelt serve as immune-stimulants. These properties help prevent viruses from successfully attacking healthy cells.
- MOOD: Spelt lightens the mood and encourages a relaxed state, due to high phenylalanine and tryptophan content. These amino acids promote contentment.
