Cultivated for at least 5,000 years, spelt is a truly ancient grain. These pearled grains have a delicious nutty flavour and are a great alternative to rice or barley in risotto, soups and casseroles. Spelt is also delicious cooked as a side dish or added to salads.
The grains can be cooked and eaten whole, or milled at home (we recommend using a table-top Mockmill for flavoursome and nutritious flour.
Add cooked pearled spelt - or if cooking time allows, dry grains - to soups, stews and casseroles.
Add cooked or toasted grains to salads.
Mill uncooked spelt grains to produce a tasty and versatile flour.
Place the spelt in a pan, cover with plenty of cold water, bring to the boil and cook for 30 to 40 minutes or until tender. Drain and serve or add to soups or stews.
Or substitute for Arborio rice for a variation on risotto.

I am an impulsive cooker and have rarely soaked any pulses when I fancy them. The naked peas (essentially split peas) solve this problem. The pink ones stayed more whole than yellow split peas, a fact I love. The taste is similar to yellow peas with a hint of red lentil and a texture similar to chick peas. I haven't tried it for houmous yet, but it should work a treat.
Just started a mainly vegan diet and had not realised how many beans you can buy! No idea what to choose so just bought this bundle. Tried a couple of recipes so far from the site and really wonderful. Who knew beans were so versatile and tasty!
Interesting to see these cooking instructions. However, I would like to recommend YQ as a bread flour. After some five years of using various Hodmedod's wheats for my bread, this is one of the very best I have tried - I get loads of compliments from family and friends whenever I bake with this flour.
Just arrived - quickly - but really looking forward to trying them.
I've just cooked them in a rice cooker to accompany a meal. Really tasty and definitely better than brown rice.
