SPELT WHEAT PROPERTIES

• Organic spelt wheat is a cereal extremely rich in proteins (contains 8 essential amino acids), minerals (such as phosphorus, iron, and magnesium), and vitamins (especially B vitamins, vitamin E, and beta-carotenes). Additionally, it is important to note that it stands out as one of the oldest cereals, which has not undergone as many genetic modifications as common wheat. Therefore, it has retained many of its original characteristics and elements. It has a higher protein content compared to common wheat, which provides around 10% of proteins, while spelt wheat provides a much higher amount (approximately 15%).

PREPARATION

• Organic spelt wheat grains need to be soaked overnight. Afterwards, cook 1 cup of spelt wheat with 4 cups of water or vegetable broth and salt to taste for 1 and a half hours. Ideally, use the spelt wheat grain directly and incorporate it into different recipes, such as dishes where rice can be replaced with spelt wheat.
