Spelt flakes small leaf

Delicious ancient grain flakes made from the whole grain with a fine nutty spelt flavor.spelt flakes are produced with the greatest care in the Spielberger flake mill. There, the whole grain is first crushed, steamed and then rolled into a fine flake. This preserves all the ingredients of the whole grain. In the case of small flakes, one grain is crushed to produce several flakes, which are finer than large flakes. With the beginning of the organic movement, spelt was rediscovered as an unadulterated original grain. Until the Middle Ages, it was considered the most important bread grain. It was only with the intensification of agriculture and the increased use of artificial fertilizers that the grain fell into oblivion. There was a very simple reason for this: unlike wheat, spelt hardly reacts to the application of nitrogen fertilizer with an increase in yield. In organic farming, however, the positive properties of the grain are appreciated. In addition to its fine nutty taste and better digestibility, spelt is characterized by the fact that it also grows well in areas with higher rainfall and at higher altitudes.
