  • Easy to cook, no soaking needed. Rinse. Place in saucepan, cover with double amount of water or stock, bring to boil and then simmer until liquid absorbed (around 20mins). (You’ll know its cooked when its ‘tail’ an be seen!)

    A delicious nutty grain.

    Easy to prepare as a rice substitute. Can be used in stews and soups.

    We often cook it together with other grains - cooks well with rice, buckwheat.

    Great to add to pasta dishes.

    Can be roasted for a crunchy salad topper.

    Good to add with porridge or even use instead of oats.
