Einkorn Wheat Recipes
There’s something satisfying about using a single ingredient in so many different ways. Einkorn is incredibly versatile, and the recipes below make it easy to bring this ancient grain into your everyday meals. Here are a few to explore:
Origin & Farming Practices
Einkorn is one of the world’s oldest cultivated grains, dating back over 10,000 years to the Fertile Crescent, which spans parts of present-day Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. It was prized for its resilience, nutrition, and rich flavor, but eventually gave way to modern wheat in large-scale farming.
At Ancient Grains, we’re helping restore this heritage crop. On our family farm in southeast Idaho, we grow Einkorn using organic and regenerative practices that enrich the soil and protect the grain’s natural traits. We never use pesticides or glyphosate, and every harvest is tested for purity.
