Einkorn is one of the original cereals, which was already cultivated several thousand years ago. It developed in the Orient and reached Europe through the ancient trade routes. After that it was displaced by spelt and wheat. Today it comes back more and more in the “trend”.
Like other ancient cereals, Einkorn is a grain that is very undemanding in cultivation and resistant to pests. Einkorn – along with oats, rye, wheat, barley, etc. – belongs to the sweet grasses.
The ears are the upper part of the grain, where the grains are found. These are very flat in Einkorn, there is only one grain on each side.
The yield of Einkornis not very high, but it contains more proteins and minerals (magnesium, zinc, iron, copper, manganese). Einkorn also contains beta-carotene. This is also the reason why it has a yellowish color – especially when ground.
Einkorn promotes intestinal health due to the fiber content and is therefore easily digestible. It can have a preventive effect on cardiovascular and diabetic diseases. In general, these health-promoting properties apply not only to Einkorn, but also to many other ancient or whole grains.
