Cracked Grain Freekeh 400g

Cracked Crain Freekeh is wholegrain freekeh that has been cracked into smaller pieces. It is similar in texture to bulgur but has tons of nutritional benefits over many other grains.

Our Freekeh cooks up quickly into a slightly firm and chewy grain, with a nutty and smokey flavour. Low in fat and high in protein and fibre it’s a great substitute for grains like quinoa, wheat berries and farro.
