Green Freekeh

Green Freekeh is a Middle Eastern whole grain made from roasted, green wheat that has been cracked and dried; it’s commonly used in pilafs, salads and as a side dish and is prized for its nutty, smoky flavor and firm texture. As a food, Green Freekeh is a high‑fiber whole grain providing 16g of fiber per 100 g and delivers more protein and minerals than many refined grains while remaining low in total and saturated fat. It also contributes trace minerals such as manganese and selenium and works well as a plant‑based source of sustained energy in meals. Because it is a fiber‑rich whole grain with appreciable protein, Green Freekeh promotes fullness and steady blood sugar after meals and makes a nutritious swap for refined rice or pasta; it also brings some beneficial micronutrients typical of whole cereal grains.
