Gary’s True Grit Einkorn Flour

What the heck is Einkorn flour? According to The Young Living Cookbook, “Einkorn is the original “staff of life” grain, dating back to the beginning of agriculture. This grain is unhybridized and has a low gluten level. It is higher in protein, phosphorous, potassium and vitamin B6, twice as much vitamin A, 4 times more beta carotene and lutein and 5 times more riboflavin than our modern wheat grain.

That all sounds good but what does it taste like? Many of us had trouble going from white flour to 100% whole wheat. Is this going to be difficult? Like any other product you have know their properties and might have to make some cooking, taste and mouth-feel adjustments. In the next few posts I will share my experiences with this ancient grain.
