For quicker cooking soak the mix for 2 or 3 hours in double the volume of water to mix. Either rinse the soaked mix and cook in stock for 30 to 40 minutes or, for pilau, cook dry in a little oil for a few minutes before adding stock as required
Add soaked or cooked mix to stews. Try home-milling and adding to breads, savoury muffins & pastry.
Notes on Cooking Dried Pulses
Cooking times for dried pulses and mixes will be longer at higher altitudes and when cooking with hard water or older pulses.
Adding bicarbonate of soda during soaking and/or cooking will soften the pulses and reduce the cooking time.
Cooked Pilau Mix can be used immediately or frozen for later use.

Flanders Wheat, Wholegrain
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Our Flanders wheat is grown by Jeremy Dickin at Oak Farm in Lincolnshire.
Wheat is one of the most common foods but whole wheat grains – or wheatberries – are rarely used. But they're a versatile, tasty and nutritious ingredient with the full flavour of wheat, whole or freshly milled.

Most commonly pressed for oil, these beautiful dark seeds of the rape or canola plant (Brassica napus subsp. napus) are also delicious as whole seeds and have a distinctive mustardy sweetness.
They're excellent for baking, as a topping or incorporated into doughs and pastry. Try adding to dressings or sprinkling toasted seeds over salad.
