Flanders Wheat, Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

£1.69

Flanders is a winter-sown medium-straw wheat, grown in Britain in the 1970s and 80s but now almost extinct.

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.

YQ Wheat, Organic Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

£1.49 £2.69

Whole organic wheat grain from the revolutionary YQ population, grown at Home Farm, Nacton, Suffolk.

YQ wheat grains can be cooked and eaten whole, or milled at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) for flavoursome and nutritious flour.

The YQ (Yield and Quality) wheat population was 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.

Spring Wheat, Organic Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Sorry, not available right now £1.49

Wheat is one of the most common foods but whole wheat grains - sometimes known as wheatberries - are surprisingly rarely used. They're a versatile, tasty and nutritious ingredient that brings the full flavour of wheat, whether used whole or freshly milled.

The grains can be soaked, cooked and eaten whole, but our current spring wheat is best suited for milling at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) an makes a flavoursome and nutritious flour.

Our current batch of wheat is from a crop of Mulika variety, a spring wheat variety well suited for bread-making, being relatively hard / high in protein. It works best with a long fermentation for sourdough baking.

Naked Barley, Wholegrain, Organic

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

£1.99 £2.69

Long before we ate modern wheat, naked barley sustained us. Well suited to our climate, Bronze Age farmers would be very familiar with this nutritious, malty cereal. Unlike most barley, where the inedible husk is tightly stuck to the grain, the husks fall off the naked barley grain when it's harvested and threshed, leaving the tasty and nutritious wholegrain ready to use.

The grains can be cooked and eaten whole, or milled at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) for flavoursome and nutritious flour.

Emmer (Farro), Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Sorry, not available right now £2.69

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.

Rye, Organic Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Sorry, not available right now £2.69

Closely related to wheat and barley, rye has a deep, distinctive flavour and can be eaten as a whole grain, ground into flour, or sprouted. The flour is traditionally used to make robust, close-textured breads.

Naked Oats, Organic Wholegrain

Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains

Sorry, not available right now £1.99

These oat groats are 'naked' because the hull naturally falls away from the grain without threshing. They're a superb alternative to brown rice, quicker to cook and with a creamier texture and richer flavour.
