What is Spelt?
Spelt is a close cousin of wheat. It has been used in Europe since about 5000 B.C. but has only recently gotten popular in America as a delicious and healthy grain for people to use like they use ordinary wheat.
Spelt flour has a somewhat nuttier and slightly sweeter flavor than whole wheat flour. Since spelt is easier to digest, in can often be tolerated by people with wheat sensitivities; however it does contain some gluten and cannot be used for people with gluten allergies.
Can you make bread with it?
Yes. You can use it to make bread and it turns out almost as well as with wheat, although it does not have as much gluten as hard wheat so it probably will not rise quite as high. See the photo comparison below.
About Wheat Montana's Chemical Free (CF) Grains
We love Wheat Montana products because they are NON-GMO (non-genetically modified) and many are also Chemical Free. Chemical Free grains have been produced in a chemical free environment. However, unlike Wheat Montana's organic products, these chemical free grains are grown using a natural nitrogen fertilizer.
These grains are also very clean, which is super important when milling your own flour since a small stone in the wheat could easily ruin your grain mill.
