Dear fellow food-lover,

Most of a grain's nutrients—and flavor—are found in its whole, unprocessed form. That's why whole grains are cherished in the Mediterranean. From smoky freekeh to sweet polenta, there is a whole grain to suit any flavor!

Happy cooking from the team at Oldways!

Freekeh’s smokiness pairs beautifully with savory roasted cauliflower and sweet-tart dried cherries.
