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.
Add cooked wheatberries - to soups, stews and casseroles.
Use cooked or toasted grains as the basis for or tasty addition to salads.
Mill uncooked grains to produce a tasty and versatile flour.
Rinse, bring to the boil then simmer until tender (about 45 minutes). Speed up cooking by pre-soaking for a few hours.

Really great to have Hodmedod recipes in book form now, excited to delve into different recipes (starting with a ful medames), lots of exciting things to try and historical nuggets of information!
Great healthy and tasty bread collection. I keep them in the freezer and eat them over a month. I will keep ordering them
This book is truly a gem. The knowledge and wisdom contained within is inspirational. It deserves to be on nearly everyone's kitchen book-shelf. For the seasoned wholefood cook it can add further rich and often imaginative choices. For the less well-practised cook, it can educate, motivate and encourage. As we travel into colder months ahead, just opening the book and seeing the first recipe (Barley & Oat Gruel with Brown Butter Leeks) is enough to galvanise one into Autumn/Winter cooking action! So, simply thank you Hodmedod's.
Made a batch of traditional recipe hummus using these red fox carlin peas and couldn't have been more delighted. Much nicer than chick peas imo, tastier and with a good meaty texture.I wouldn't go back to chick peas (which seem to be getting harder to find from a trustworthy source) again, the carlin pea is my go-to now.
An amazing recipe book that highlights ancient beans and grains from the UK that can be used to make delicious food. The beautiful illustrations and design are a bonus!
