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.

Naked Oats, Organic Wholegrain
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£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.

Wheat Grain, Organic Wholegrain
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£1.49 £2.69
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 cooked and eaten whole, or milled at home (we recommend using a Mockmill) for flavoursome and nutritious flour.
Our current batch of wheat is from a crop of Paragon 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.
