Freekeh, 250g

Freekeh, the ancient traditional green wheat of Palestine is the new hot super grain! Unlike many other types of Freekeh available in the markets which are dry and more 'mature' due to harvesting the wheat just a little bit earlier, Canaan Freekeh is harvested much earlier when wheat is still very young & green, and then prepared to authentic traditions: flame roasted, sun-dried and crushed. 

 Flame roasting gives it the smokey flavour, so it's more flavourful, chewey & has more texture to it. It is very high in protein, has four times the fiber as brown rice and tastes absolutely delicious. 

 Canaan Fair Trade uses the fair trade concept to empower marginalized Palestinian rural communities caught in conflict so they can sustain their livelihoods and culture. To that end, they have built direct working relationships with these communities, paying sustainable prices for their agricultural products to ensure fair wages for labor along the supply chain. Canaan Fair Trade educates farmers about sustainable practices and support conversion to certified organic production.
