Organic Khorasan Wheat

Organic Khorasan wheat is an ancient grain, a variety of durum wheat, that is naturally larger and has a higher protein and mineral content than modern wheat. It is grown organically, meaning without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is milled into flour for use in various food products.

Khorasan wheat flour is used as a substitute for regular wheat flour in baked goods like breads, pasta, and crackers, offering a slightly nutty and buttery flavor. Manufacturers use it to provide a whole grain option with a distinct taste and texture.

Khorasan wheat is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of nutrients like protein, fiber, and minerals. Like other whole grains, it can be part of a healthy diet. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated grains and their components, but specific evaluations for Khorasan wheat's health effects at typical consumption levels are not widely publicized.
