DESCRIPTION
The "Ancient Grain"
Kamut grain is an ancient relative of modern durum wheat and originated in the Fertile Crescent of the Old World thousands of years ago. After a long period of oblivion, this grain was rediscovered and has now found an important place in contemporary diets. Superior in both taste and nutrition, it can be substituted for common wheat with great success. Kamut wheat has a rich, buttery flavour, with normally 20-40% more protein, a higher profile of amino acids, lipids, vitamins and minerals, and is easily digestible. A hard amber spring variety with a huge humpbacked kernel, it grows best in most regions where durum is traditionally cultivated. This grain is unscathed by modern plant breeding programs which have sacrificed flavor and nutrition for higher yields dependent upon large amounts of synthetic agricultural inputs.

Kamut Wheat Adds Rich, Satisfying Flavor To All Your Favorite Grain Dishes
Because of the inherent sweetness of kamut grain, (referred to by some as "the sweet wheat") no sugar is required to hide the subtle bitterness associated with most wheats and whole wheat products. Kamut has great texture and nutritional qualities.
High Energy Grain with Great Nutrition!
The complete nutritional analysis of kamut grain substantiates that it is higher in energy than other wheats. Compared to common wheat, it is higher in eight of nine minerals, such as magnesium and zinc. It has been found to contain much more of the natural antioxidant selenium and is 30% higher in the similarly important vitamin E. The grain also contains up to 65% more amino acids and boasts more lipids and fatty acids. The most striking superiority of kamut wheat is found in its protein level, up to 40% higher than the national average for wheat. Because of its higher percentage of lipids, which produce more energy in the body than carbohydrates, kamut wheat can be described as a "high energy grain."
Kamut wheat was named one of the ten best foods by whole foods author David Goldbeck.
Only Organically Grown.
Perhaps the most significant aspect of the introduction and cultivation of kamut brand wheat is that it is an important new crop for sustainable agriculture. This grain's ability to produce high quality without artificial fertilizers and pesticides makes it an excellent crop for organic farming.
