Roughly 2 cups of flour - milled fresh to order!

Hard red wheat berries come from Triticum aestivum, a variety of wheat known for its robust, earthy flavor and dense texture. These whole, unprocessed kernels are typically a deep reddish-brown in color and are harvested from wheat plants that are particularly suited for baking and milling. Hard red wheat is one of the most commonly grown wheat varieties in North America, especially in regions with cooler climates.

Nutritionally, hard red wheat berries are an excellent source of protein, dietary fiber, and essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc. They are also high in B-vitamins, particularly niacin, thiamine, and folate, which support overall health. The high protein content, especially gluten, makes hard red wheat ideal for bread-making, as it yields a strong, elastic dough capable of producing hearty, chewy loaves with a rich, nutty flavor.

When cooked, hard red wheat berries retain a firm, satisfying texture and a hearty taste, making them perfect for use in salads, grain bowls, pilafs, and side dishes. The berries can be simmered until tender or used as a base for soups and stews. They can also be ground into flour to make whole wheat bread, crackers, pancakes, and other baked goods, imparting a denser, more flavorful result compared to refined white flour.

Hard red wheat berries are prized for their versatility, nutritional benefits, and full-bodied taste. Their use in both savory and sweet dishes adds a layer of depth and wholesomeness, making them a staple choice for those looking to incorporate whole grains into their diet.
