Freekeh, a celebrated Middle Eastern grain, is hailed as the world’s most nutritious ancient grain. This smoky green wheat is a super-versatile ingredient renowned for its health benefits. It is made from green durum wheat that is harvested while still young, then roasted and threshed to remove the husk. With its rich, nutty flavor, Freekeh offers a wholesome alternative to rice and other grains, enhancing a variety of dishes such as salads, stews, and pilafs. Freekeh also pairs beautifully with roasted meats, such as lamb or chicken, and vegetables, often mixed with spices, herbs, and nuts like pine nuts or almonds.
