Whole grains…
Wholegrain Freekeh are young grains of wheat that are harvested at their nutritional peak and lightly toasted. Unlike our Greenwheat Freekeh, the grains are not cracked and remain whole. With a nutty taste, wholesome texture and hint of smokiness, Wholegrain Freekeh makes a flavourful alternative to rice, couscous and bulgur wheat.
