Hard Red Wheat Berries

Wheat berries are a hidden gem when it comes to their nutrient value as a whole grain. Generally speaking, wheat is a great source of iron and protein, along with other vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and vitamin E. 

Hard Red Wheat in particular is one of the most popular wheat varieties for baking bread. The hard grain contains a wonderful protein profile to build the gluten strands necessary for any rising bread, whether through conventional yeast, or wild yeast in the case of sourdough. The red wheat has that whole grain flavour that is so comforting and wholesome to so many of us. Whether you want to keep them whole and make a wheat berry salad, sprout them for wheat grass, or grind them to make your own flour, Hard Red Wheat is a wonderful staple to keep in your pantry.
