Now that I do like. However, I’ll admit that I’m intrigued by Freekah as a substitute for oatmeal. I doubt I’ll find it in our little market, but I’ll keep my y s peeled nonetheless.Mindy Obenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049730175697756032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-5688653676675045912017-12-13T22:07:38.672-05:002017-12-13T22:07:38.672-05:00Well, I’m afraid Ruthy took the words out of my mo...Well, I’m afraid Ruthy took the words out of my mouth.

But it makes sense...why not harvest the wheat before it's fully ripe and dried? I remember picking unripe heads of grain in a wheat field and eating them...I'm sure I got the idea from the Bible. ;-)<br /><br />But I've never seen it in the store. We don't have a Whole Foods here, but we do have an aisle in Safeway...Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-84248408941974604582017-12-13T09:49:41.986-05:002017-12-13T09:49:41.986-05:00Never heard of Freekeh.

Though if it's like bulgur I wonder if you could use it in main course recipes like chili? Hmmm.<br /><br />You are so brave and adventurous, Cate.

If she wakes up, I'll blame you!!<br /><br />I am cracking up about the ancient grains. :) Mary Cate, ignore Ruthy! I think that she was making fun of me because just yesterday I recommended ancient grain pasta to Janet!!! hahahaMissy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-43206569390997994572017-12-13T09:10:33.362-05:002017-12-13T09:10:33.362-05:00I've never heard of this!
