Freekeh Wholegrain by Greenwheat
It used to be that when it came to fixing a starch for dinner, your choice was between rice, pasta, and potatoes. Well, now there's Freekeh! (pronounced free-ka)
Greenwheat Freekeh is a delicious, highly nutritious grain made from roasted green grains. It is free from any chemicals or GMO. Currently we make Freekeh from wheat but plan to produce Freekeh from green barley, green triticale and other green grains soon. Because the grains are harvested while still young, Freekehcontains more protein, vitamins, and minerals than the same mature grain and other grains. It is low GI, low carb, high in fibre(up to four times the fibre of brown rice) and rich in prebiotic properties. According to the CSIRO Freekehis excellent for managing diabetes and may diminish the risk of colorectal cancer and diverticulitis.
Use Greenwheat Freekeh in a variety of ways, such as:
A side dish (prepared and served like rice).
An ingredient in soups and stuffings, with vegetables as a salad.
An ingredient in vegetarian burgers.
There are endless possibilities!
