Description
ecoLife® Authentic Roasted Freekeh is the name of wheat that’s harvested while still green and tender, then dried and gently roasted to produce a grain with a barley-like flavor and a subtle hint of smokiness. An excellent alternative to conventional wheat, freekeh offers high amounts of protein and fiber with a lower glycemic index. Freekeh’s hearty texture makes it excellent for pilafs, grain salads, and stews.
