Blazing Salads Spelt Bread €3.99, delivered Mondays,Wednesdays and Fridays

Spelt is an ancient cousin of modern wheat, and has many advantages over its more in-bred relative.

It also has a broader nutritional profile than regular wheat as it is much closer to the wild grasses that all cultivated grains started life as.

Unlike modern wheat it has not been selectively bred just to make bread, so it has a lower gluten content, higher amounts of amino acids as well…
