There are conflicting opinions on whether wheat berries are good for diabetics or not. Some say that wheat berries can help regulate blood sugar levels, while others claim that they can cause spikes in blood sugar levels. However, there is no definitive answer and it is ultimately up to the individual to decide whether wheat berries are right for them.
There are many health benefits to wheat berries. They are a good source of fiber and contain more protein than quinoa. Wheat berries also have a lower glycemic index, which means they won't cause your blood sugar to spike like quinoa can.
There is some debate over whether wheat berries or rice is the healthier grain. Wheat berries are a whole grain and contain more fiber than rice. They also have a higher protein content. Rice is lower in calories and fat, and it has a higher glycemic index, meaning it raises blood sugar levels more slowly than wheat berries.
No, wheat berries are not low carb. Wheat berries are a type of whole wheat grain that contains all three parts of the grain kernel – the bran, the germ, and the endosperm. One cup of cooked wheat berries contains approximately 28 grams of carbohydrates, most of which is starch.

Durham wheat is another name for hard white wheat. Semolina is referred to as "wheat middlings" in Italy. This was crushed into flour. I have used it as bread flour thus far and have obtained a light, delicate texture that contains a full grain. Nice. Although it had less gluten than Hard Red Winter Wheat, the bread rose nicely. Each loaf had a few tablespoons of melted coconut oil.Rumford non-aluminum baking powder performed admirably in biscuits. Again, they contained melted coconut oil, which was also used to line the cookie sheet.With good results, I've also used it to make pie crusts using simply distilled water, coconut oil, and salt.I'm hoping to find out soon how well my kid used it to make pizza dough. Gourmet pizzas were cooked there as part of a much bigger menu when he was the manager of an Italian eatery.This whole grain flour, in my opinion, accomplishes all the same tasks as conventional white or unbleached flour. All right!Oh, yes. Just letting you know that I didn't buy this wheat or any other grain today without considering the Non-GMO certification.The quality is good. I believe I recall discovering a few hulls, but it was not a big concern.

Italian grain pie for my spouse throughout the holidays, especially Easter, has finally been found after years of searching. I ultimately made the decision to attempt creating one for Thanksgiving this year. Since one of the recipes I looked at claimed that white wheat berries cooked more quickly, I went online to get premium soft white wheat berries. After buying the 3 lb. bag of Palouse Brand white wheat berries, I eventually focused my recipe search on one that seemed traditional but was also simpler to prepare. The pie was a big hit with my husband, and I thought it was delicious too. In fact, I believe it was superior to the two or three pies I bought in New York when we lived there from Italian shops (forget about trying to buy one in San Diego, where we now reside). With my three pound bag of wheat berries, I will be making this pie far more frequently than it is typically done, which is solely for Easter. Yes, the berries are pricey, but wonderful components are required for a superb pie! I appreciate you helping me make this fantastic dessert!

I produce whole wheat bread. I don't add store-bought white flour to the mixture. My bread is excellent because I utilize these wheat berries and barley. One of my son's coworkers wants to eat half of the sandwich I make for him at work. You can get full on one sandwich. The bread cleans you out because it contains so much fiber. There's a ruse. To remove the bran from all-wheat berries before grinding them for bread, use a sieve with at least 50 holes per inch. overnight bran soaking I use 3 cups of milk and the bran from 2 pounds of wheat berries to make a sponge. I added 2 tablespoons of honey and 4 pinches of yeast. One cup of barley flour is also added. Overnight soak The liquid for your bread comes from your sponge. 6 1/2 cups of flour can be produced from 2 pounds of berries. I use 1 1/2 tsp salt and at least 5 cups of wheat flour. Your dough is moist because the bran absorbs the moisture from it. Simply pour your sponge into the flour and stir until the flour is moist. Plastic wrap the surface and give it 30 minutes to set. This makes the gluten active. 4 minutes of kneading and 2 hours of proofing. The remaining flour is added to the dough to achieve the proper consistency as well as to cover the kneading surface. Take dough out the bowl, give it a good 4 or 5 kneads, and place it in bread pan. It should bake for an hour and then double in size in around two hours. When the temperature of the bread hits 202 degrees, it is done. Yeast won't even have a taste.

I adore the crunch and additional texture that wheat berries can give some dishes. They can also be used to make a delicious hot cereal by themselves; simply add some margarine, honey, and possibly some dried fruit. Yum.I'm quite impressed with the Palouse wheat berries. (I've been pleased with everything I've purchased from Palouse; however, that is the subject of another review.) Although I haven't gone through each berry carefully, I can state that these are the cleanest, tightest whole wheat berries I've ever bought. They prepare themselves in just 2 to 2 1/2 hours on high in a slow cooker.I don't pre-soak the berries before cooking like other people do. My berries should still have some crunch to them.Into the crockpot:Start with three to four cups of water and three to four cups of sorted and rinsed wheat berries.My slow cooker was set to high for two hours. After about 1 1/2 hours, I inspect the berries and, if necessary, add another cup of water. When the timer goes off, I once again check the berries. If the berries are not cooked to my pleasure, I extend the cooking time by 30 to 60 minutes and, if necessary, add water.I allowed the cooked berries to cool in the pot after they were done. I portion them out into resealable plastic bags in 1/2 cup portions after they have cooled. For that breakfast treat, I also package one in a serving size of one cup.What can I do with the wheat berries? I include them in rice dishes, soups, and oatmeal in particular. I like to prepare a week's worth of steel-cut oats in the slow cooker all at once. When I do this, I combine 1 1/2 cups of steel-cut oats with 1/2 cup of raw wheat berries. Using 4 cups of water as a base, I add more as necessary and cook for 2 to 2 1/2 hours on high or 2 1/2 to 3 hours on low.June 9, 2013, Update: I neglected to note that this wheat sprouts beautifully.This five-pound bag of wheat berries fits perfectly in a Snapware MODS Medium Rectangle Storage Container 17 Cups, as of June 11, 2013. (No, I don't work for Snapware, but it was difficult to come up with a storage solution for all of my new goodies that didn't involve the bucket with the gamma cover I use for the 20 lbs. of soybeans I buy from a farm directly.)

I got this by accident since I was so concerned with the price to notice that I wasn't getting whole grain flour. I try to turn it into a joyful accident whenever I can. We tried heating it in the microwave, but it burned horribly. It has not yet been attempted in the air popper. I used the magic bullet grinder attachment to ground up this product. It works ok if you move slowly and don't put in a lot at once. However, a portion of it won't grind up smoothly and will leave hulls in the ground grain. But it functions fairly well when baked into bread. Toasting is necessary before using gluten-free bread. The result is a tiny amount of crunchiness that has a somewhat sweet kick after baking and then toasting. I enjoy it. The impact is not significant because I only use one part of this to six and a half parts of other flours. Next time, I'll be mindful to simply order flour.

GOLDEN GRAIN GOODNESS: Our burghul contains nothing artificial, no cholesterol, has a lower-glycemic index, and is naturally non-GMO (...as are other whole wheat derived grains). Bulgar is sometimes referred to as the “Middle Eastern pasta†for its versatility as a base for some hot breakfast cereals, all sorts of side dishes for lunch or dinner, pilafs and salads such as Tabbouleh (also spelled as Tabouli or Tabouleh) to name just a few
HIGH YIELD AND RESILIENT: Make 2.5x – 3x more food with just 2lbs of Zaiqa Bulgur Wheat; an excellent choice for difficult times, off-grid living & disaster stricken regions. Know the difference between Cracked Wheat & Bulgur Wheat before storing for a longer period. Cracked wheat is raw & uncooked whereas wheat kernels that are cleaned, boiled, dried, ground by a mill & then sorted by size, are called bulgur – which cooks faster & stores better. Most retail stores sell Bulgur, not Cracked Wheat
MINIMALISTIC APPROACH: Simple, yet secure packaging. Allows for storage at home in an airtight glass or canning jar
NUTRITION PACKED: One of the oldest good-for-you nutritious super food that is a potent package of dietary fiber, vitamins, phytonutrients, minerals & antioxidants, which is why they are often included in many healing diets, like the Mediterranean diet. Great source of plant-based protein with a high dose of fiber that ferments in the gut to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) which not only improve immunity and nutrient absorption but also helps balance pH of the body
EXCITE YOUR TASTE: Just when you feel the time is right to uplift traditional Rice, Couscous and Quinoa dishes with something new, you may want to embark on a culinary adventure with bulghur; a quick-cooking, nutty-flavored, whole grain food that cooks in about the time it takes you to order fast food. Only difference – you get a good mix of nutrition, taste and convenience in one place

This is my second purchase of it. Very excellent cut that cooks something like barley. Great in soups or with lentils or other ingredients on top.It took some time because I had cataracts and was ill, but it appears that this batch was barley and not Bulgur Wheat #4 as the previous was. Mis-marked? It certainly looks like barley, so it makes sense why it was boiling up like barley.The third order was excellent and so wonderful that I ate it with only a few spices. This purchase was excellent.

Recently, I've developed a slight "Cream of Wheat" addiction. Since I was a child, I have enjoyed eating the name-brand food that my mother made for me. I adore Bob's steel cut oats (which got a prize for best at a competition in Scotland and are deserving of it) and his whole flax seed (use a clean coffee grinder to crush it and consume spoonfuls to quickly improve brain function; it provides excellent brain nourishment but the oil capsules don't!). Even his corn grits with milk, honey, and strawberries or blueberries are sometimes to my liking.(This is the largest filibuster ever!)Anyhow, this organic wheat farina is considerably smoother, ready quicker, and tastes better. Why not adore it?The reason I appreciate it so much (apart from the taste, texture, etc.) is undoubtedly because I was spoonfed it as a little child, especially after reading the package's recommendation to use with milk or formula for infants.

Although I have largely focused on quinoa and brown rice, I have chosen to test bulgur. Definitely glad I did. Bulgur and other whole grains are higher in vitamins and nutrients than refined, processed wheat, which has been deprived of many healthy components. Bulgur wheat is a nutritious food choice because it is low in fat, high in fiber, and rich in minerals.One cup of cooked bulgur wheat contains 151 calories, 0.4 grams of fat, 8.2 grams of dietary fiber (about 33% of the daily value), and a healthy 5.6 grams of protein, according to published nutritional statistics. Wheat bulgur is naturally devoid of cholesterol.I just followed the simple preparation instructions on the packaging, and I was really happy with the outcome. Delicious. I'm looking forward to regularly including bulgur in my diet and my original dishes.Food facts for bulgurportion size 1 cup boiled without salt (182 g)Calories 151 Calories from Fat 4 Per ServingSaturated fat: 0.1g Polyunsaturated fat: 0.2g Monounsaturated fat: 0.1g Total fat: 0.4g Cholesterol: 0mgSodium 9mgsPotassium 123.76mgProtein 5.6g Carbohydrates 33.8g Dietary Fiber 8.2g Sugars 0.2gZero percent of vitamins A and CCalcium 2% and 10% iron
No, wheat berries are not the same as farro. Farro is a type of wheat, while wheat berries are the whole grain of wheat. Wheat berries can be used to make flour, while farro is often used in soups and salads.
You don't have to wash wheat berries before grinding, but doing so can help to remove any dirt or debris that may be on them. If you choose to wash them, simply rinse the berries in a colander or strainer with cool water.
One cup of wheat berries will make approximately 2 and 1/4 cups of flour.
Buckwheat and wheat berries are not the same. Buckwheat is the seeds of a plant in thePolygonaceae family, while wheat berries are the whole wheat kernels. Both are nutritious and can be used in a variety of recipes, but buckwheat has a distinct, nutty flavor that wheat berries lack.
There is another name for wheat berries, and that is wheat kernels. Wheat berries are the whole wheat grain, including the bran, germ, and endosperm. The bran is the outer layer of the wheat kernel, and it is rich in fiber and nutrients. The germ is the innermost layer of the wheat kernel, and it is a good source of vitamins and minerals. The endosperm is the starchy part of the wheat kernel, and it is the main source of carbohydrates in wheat.
