THE BEST SPELT MULTI-GRAIN BREAD

Julian Bakery’s Spelt Multi-Grain Bread is wheat free, yeast free and sweet free. It is cultured by a sourdough process that enables the culture to predigest all of the nutrients in the grains, making them more bio-available to your body.

It is made with fresh, stone ground, whole grains of spelt, brown rice, millet, quinoa, rye and sea salt.

Whole Grains or foods made from them contain all essential parts and naturally occurring nutrients of the entire grain seed. If the grain has been processed (cracked, crushed, rolled, extruded, and/or cooked), the food product should deliver approximately the same rich balance of nutrients that are found in the original grain seed.

Spelt is a nutritious ancient grain with a nut-like flavor. The texture is slightly crunchy. Spelt is an excellent source of vitamin B2, a very good source of manganese and a good source of niacin, thiamin and copper.

Millets are a group of small-seeded species of cereal crops or grains. As they are not closely related to wheat, they are appropriate for those with wheat intolerances. Millets are a major food source in arid and semi arid regions around the world.

Quinoa is a species of goosefoot (chenopodium) and is a grain-like crop grown for its seeds. It is not a true cereal or grain, as it is not a grass. Quinoa is closely related to beets, spinach and tumbleweeds. It is eaten as a leaf vegetable, much like Amaranth. Quinoa is highly valued for its protein content, making it a healthy choice for vegetarians and vegans. Unlike wheat or rice, Quinoa contains a balanced set of essential amino acids, making it an unusual complete protein. It is a good source of fiber and phosphorus and is high in magnesium and iron. It is gluten-free and easy to digest.

Rye is a grass grown as a grain. It is closely related to barley and wheat. Rye is a cereal and should not be confused with ryegrass. Rye has a lower gluten content than wheat flour and contains a higher proportion of soluble fiber.

Spelt Multi-Grain is one of Barbara’s Granddaughter’s favorite breads. I am sure you will love it as well. What is not to love about any of the Julian Bakery breads?
