I had the pleasure of reviewing their Freekah, which I had never had before & spoiler alert- WE LOVED IT! Their freekeh is young, green wheat that is roasted over an open flame for a rich smoky flavor and cracked to reduce the cooking time. This grain makes a great alternative to rice or couscous for a delicious side dish. Spice it up like you would any rice dish or prepare as is- any way you dish it, it is delicious and easy to make. The whole family will love it.
