Other
whole wheat
The wheat kernel with bran, germ, and starchy endosperm still together, sold as berries or as flour that keeps those parts.
Origin
Wheat is a Near Eastern cereal, now a global staple.
Flavour
Nutty and slightly sweet, with a tannic note from the bran.
How to use it
Simmer the berries until they are tender, or bake with the flour, which drinks more water than white flour.
Storage
Airtight and cool. Whole-grain flour stales faster than white flour because of the oils in the germ.
