All grains are packaged in eco-friendly linen drawstring bags, bringing wholesome nutrition and diverse flavors to your kitchen.
This Bundle includes:
- Rye: Known for its robust, earthy flavor and dense texture, rye is a versatile grain perfect for baking hearty breads, adding depth to porridges, or creating flavorful grain salads.
- Spelt: An ancient grain with a slightly nutty and sweet flavor profile, spelt offers a lighter, more tender texture than traditional wheat. It's an excellent choice for baking, pasta making, and as a nourishing side dish.
- Pearled Barley: A culinary staple, pearled barley is prized for its chewy texture and mild, slightly sweet taste. It's ideal for thickening soups and stews, creating comforting risottos, or as a base for vibrant grain bowls.
- Durum Wheat Berries: These hard wheat kernels are the foundation for many pasta varieties. When cooked whole, durum wheat berries offer a satisfying chew and a rich, wheaty flavor, making them perfect for hearty salads, pilafs, or as a nutritious addition to soups.

Best Uses for Durum Wheat Berries
Durum wheat berries are the whole grains of durum wheat, the "hardest" wheat type, known for its high protein content, strong gluten, and golden color, making it ideal for pasta, semolina, and whole grain dishes like salads and pilafs.
How to Store Durum Wheat Berries
Store them in a cool (50-70°F), dark, dry, and airtight environment. Ideal containers include food-grade buckets with gamma lids or glass jars for shorter terms.
