Organic Spelta Farro for Milling - Italian Origin

Discover the rich history and exceptional qualities of our Organic Spelta Farro, sourced directly from Italy. This premium grain, also known as granfarro or Triticum spelta, is a true ancient wheat variety, closely related to modern wheat and esteemed for its unique nutritional profile and versatile uses.

Product Features

Our Spelta Farro is decorticato, meaning it has been husked and is ready for milling, ensuring the highest quality and purity. This variety of farro is particularly rich in nutrients, including vitamins and minerals, offering a satiating and low-calorie option with only 340 kcal per 100g of edible portion. It is an excellent source of the essential amino acid methionine, which is often lacking in other cereals. Moreover, Spelta Farro contains less gluten than modern wheat, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivity.

Benefits and Uses

The Spelta Farro's long and thin spike and reddish stems make it an attractive plant that thrives in sunny, nutrient-poor soils. This versatile grain can be used in a variety of dishes, from soups and stews to pasta and bread. The presence of non-edible glumes, or hulls, adhering to the endosperm distinguishes Spelta Farro from modern wheat. These glumes add texture and nutritional value to the grain, making it a nutritious and delicious choice for anyone looking to incorporate more whole grains into their diet.
