Einkorn flour
Einkorn flour
The OG of wheat, einkorn is the ancient of ancients, with evidence of wild einkorn dating back to tens of thousands of years, and the first domesticated form recorded around 7500 BC. Packed full of nutrients and especially high in protein, einkorn is known to be easier to digest, as the composition of glutenins and gliadins, which are what make up gluten, differs from modern wheats. And still, beautiful naturally leavened bread can be made with this flour. Grown in NY on certified organic acreage.
