What it is
Triticale is a hybrid grain, created by crossing wheat and rye. It combines the hardiness and disease resistance of rye with the yield and baking quality of wheat. It is grown and milled into flour for various food applications.
Why it's used
Triticale flour is used in baking to produce breads, cookies, and other baked goods. It can also be found in cereals, pasta, and snack products, often as a whole grain ingredient.
Health notes
Triticale is a source of dietary fiber, protein, and various micronutrients. Like other whole grains, it can contribute to a healthy diet. Regulatory bodies like the FDA generally consider grains like triticale to be safe for consumption. International bodies such as JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many food ingredients, but specific evaluations for triticale are not widely publicized.
Allergen info
Triticale is a type of wheat and therefore contains gluten. Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity should avoid triticale.
