The Grandfather of Grains.

Spelt has been grown by farmers as long ago as 5,000 BC where it is also known as “Farro” (Italy), “Dinkle” (Germany) and in Roman times was called “Farrum”.

Spelt’s “nutty” flavour has long been popular and because of it’s high water solubility, the nutrients are easily absorbed by the body. It is naturally high in fibre, contains significantly more protein than wheat and is also higher in B complex vitamins. The Spelt grain contains both simple and complex carbohydrates which are an important factor in blood clotting and stimulating the body’s immune system.

Another important benefit is that some gluten-sensitive people are able to include spelt-based foods in their diets.

Some 800 years ago Hildegard von Bingen, (St.Hildegard) wrote about spelt: “The spelt is the best of grains. It is rich and nourishing and milder than other grain. It produces a strong body and healthy blood to those who eat it and it makes the spirit of man light and cheerful. If someone is ill boil some spelt, mix it with egg and this will heal him like a fine ointment.”
