Whole wheat grains for cooking whole or to use as a grist for home milling. (Looking for Flanders Wheat Flour instead?) Once popular with millers and bakers, Flanders is quite unlike any other British wheat, being soft but with good bread making qualities. |
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.
To cook as a whole grain: Rinse, bring to the boil, then simmer until tender (about 45 minutes). Speed up cooking by pre-soaking for a few hours.

I love this wheat berry, it's so nice to mill and bake with. Tastes lovely and hand threshed ♥️, great delivery too, thanks
Really good supplier of whole grains for milling. The only reason it gets 4 stars is that one of the bags had ripped open during transit. The protein level @ 10.5% is on the low side for making bread, but it does produce a wonderfully flavoured bread.

I often find fava beans a bit bitter (is it just me?!) so have previously just used them in quite heavily flavoured dishes. Not these ones though - no bitterness at all - just really tasty. I often eat them just with a bit of seasoning and drizzle of oil!
This unusual flour is something everyone should try. I use it in sourdough and yeasted bread, and it makes an unusually dense dough that is actually rather textured and nice to stretch and fold even when using at 50:50 with white. It has a very nice flavour with a long prove - and so far has never over-proved on me by going liquidy. Aside from its unusual flavour and appearance, I have achieved a good firm and edible crust that doesn't turn into nasty shards
I make fantastic tasty hummus with Carlin Peas . I cook up the whole pack, then freeze in very small batches., equivalent to a canful, and they defrost overnight. I sometimes add butter beans or flageolets and vary the flavour with all sorts,…paprika, sun-dried tomatoes, aubergine etc. Or I can add them frozen to meat or veg stews, stir fries etc. love them!!
Really like this dish, great flavour and some real substance to it!
Fantastic grain for making risotto's and stews creates a really great creamy texture during cooking without the addition of dairy (although the addition of dairy elevates everything!) They don't overcook unlike rice so its almost a foolproof alternative, the end results are a moreish bite to the cooked grain.
