Organic Einkorn Wheat Berries 10 lb.
We pack our einkorn wheat berries right at the farm where they are grown! Wheat berries are the whole grain or kernel. Einkorn grows inside an outer husk which is carefully cleaned, without polishing or pearling the grain so you are eating 100% of the bran and germ. Einkorn is the first and most ancient variety of wheat that has never been hybridized and is quickly becoming the wheat of choice for the gluten sensitive because of its very weak gluten.
Einkorn wheat berries should be stored properly to ensure freshness. The most prudent step to proper storage is estimating and storing only what you’ll be using over a 1-2 month period and not opening more than that amount. If you bake infrequently, it is not a good idea to buy a bulk amount. It’s best to buy smaller amounts more frequently and then always work with the freshest ingredients.
We recommend wheat berries be stored in an airtight container in a cool pantry away from direct sunlight for up to 2 months. For longer storage or if the temperature in your kitchen is frequently above 75⁰F, storing in a fridge or freezer in an airtight container is recommended.
Berries can be milled or cooked directly from cold storage.

How special it is to even talk about this product! I found out about Jovial and Einkorn not long after I met my husband. We were both looking for ways to improve our diets and I was particularly struggling with gluten sensitivity. Then Einkorn immediately became the main ingredient in our baking. The whole wheat flour has been, since then, the food of our sourdough starter, and I can't imagine any product better than this.
Both whole wheat and all-purpose flours, have unique and complex flavors and colors. Anything made of einkorn is a reminder to my senses, of how much I enjoy this tiny precious wheat.
In the past, I purchased these berries from a retailer, but how pleased I was to find out that a 10 lb box is available here. The berries are soft and easy to mill. It is a true privilege to have a high-quality fresh flour to make our breads, cakes, cookies and many other delicious things. When I make bread, about 85% of the time my priority is flavor and nutrition, over appearance. It's certain that a whole wheat einkorn bread is going to look a bit more "squat" than most recipes, but that's totally fine, because I can't find the same flavor anywhere else.
Einkorn berries are also amazing for tabouli, or just any salad that we would like to add a deep and complex flavor to.
Thanks Jovial team for making this incredible product available!

I love the einkorn wheat berries. I like the idea that by buying berries I can have very fresh flour and keep all the wheat germ and bran. I use it to make delicious raisin walnut miche and whole wheat boule.

I’m excited to have a product from Italy that can give my family fresh bread. Safe from chemicals and untouched and in its healthy ancient form. I appreciate the sale price so that I could afford the cost.
- ABAmy B.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoLove these wheat berries!
I absolutely love these wheat berries. I always have some cooked in the fridge to add to soups, salads, or my morning oatmeal to make a hearty and healthy meal. I love the chewy texture and the nutritional punch these little berries pack. I’m thinking about ordering the grain grinder attachment for my Kitchen Aid and grinding my own whole wheat flour. Yet another reason to love these little berries!
