How To Cook Puff Pastry

Spelt has a complex history. It is a wheat species known from genetic evidence to have originated as a naturally occurring hybrid of a domesticated tetraploid wheat such as emmer wheat and the wild goat-grass Aegilops tauschii.

It can be used in place of rice or other grains, or as a cereal. To make puffed spelt, you will need: -1 cup spelt -1/2 cup water -1/4 teaspoon salt Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan.

Spelt grain is an ancient cereal grain which is closely related to wheat. Spelt is considered ancient because it was first cultivated 9000 years ago. Many people prefer Spelt to ‘modern’ wheat because its DNA has not been changed by farming methods and it has a more extensive nutritional profile. It has a more nutty taste than milder tasting wheat which makes it popular with alternative bakers trying new grain combinations. Similarly, references to the cultivation of spelt wheat in Biblical times (see matzo), in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia are incorrect and result from confusion with emmer wheat.

Like wheat, spelt contains a significant amount of FODMAPs, which can trigger IBS symptoms in susceptible people ( 29, 30 , 31).Pm5 is an effector-triggered resistance (ETR) gene for powdery mildew. [6] Pm5 was found by Keller et al., 1999 and they originally misidentified it as a quantitative trait locus (QTL) due to polymorphism in the pathogen for virulence/ avirulence.
