Einkorn History Einkorn (Triticum Monococcum) is a an early form of wheat eaten by mankind over 20, 000 years ago and first cultivated by early civilisations in the Fertile Crescent (Egypt, Jordan, Israel) about 9, 000 years ago. It produces tall stalks with two rows of small flat grains. It was popular in the Mediterranean because it grows well, even in poor soil and became part of the ste diet. It was superseded during the Roman era by the more modern versions of wheat we know today, due to their larger yields and now we see little of Einkorn. The Einkorn is ally grown by Doves Farm in the U. K. After the harvest, the inedible husks are removed and then the grains are milled by stone.

Overall, cooking with Einkorn flour is almost exactly the same as cooking with regular wholemeal flour. Einkorn flour makes a lighter dough, and is quite good for bread-making as the dough is strong. Einkorn has a different gluten structure from normal wheat. This means that some people who have trouble digesting normal wheat may get on a little better with Einkorn. But please note that Einkorn still contains gluten. You might also like... Wholemeal Emmer Flour, 1kg (Doves Farm) Emmer Flour is another ancient grain used in bread, cakes, pasta and biscuits.
