Emmer (Farro), Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

£21.52 £26.90

An ancestor of durum wheat, emmer was among the first cereals cultivated in the Fertile Crescent. It has a deliciously nutty flavour and can be eaten as a whole grain (farro) or ground into flour.

The grains make great alternative to rice, as a side or in risotto (farrotto?), or can be milled at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) for flour that makes superb bread and pasta.

Two other grains are occasionally used for farro and emmer or farro medio sits between smaller einkorn (farro piccolo) and larger spelt (farro grande). 

Our emmer is grown by Jeremy Dickin in Lincolnshire.

YQ Wheat Flakes, Organic

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

£11.47

These revolutionary wheat flakes are made from the YQ (Yield and Quality) wheat population bred at Wakelyns Agroforestry by Professor Martin Wolfe and the Organic Research Centre. The population is a crop of extraordinary diversity, that's emerged over time from a wide range of carefully chosen parent varieties, leading to fields of millions of genetically distinct individual wheat plants rather than the usual genetically uniform monocultures.

Perfect for porridge and muesli, fantastic in bread, crumbles, granola and flapjacks, or even with leeks.
