DID YOU KNOW? EMMER WHEAT: Emmer, the second of the “ancient wheats” appears to have emerged on the scene about 10,000 BC in Egypt. Emmer demonstrates a strong tolerance to various climatic conditions. It is quite similar in characteristics and flavor of einkorn. The earliest civilizations initially consumed emmer as a porridge before bread making was developed. While emmer flour does produce a satisfactory loaf of bread, the quality is not as good as bread made with common wheat. It is suggested to use half emmer flour and half bread flour.
