What do you get when you take young, green wheat loaded with nutrients and roast it to perfection? Something Freekeh! Cracked Freekeh (pronounced freek-ah) has more fiber than almost any other grain and is also a good source of protein. It has a low glycemic rating, is suitable for vegetarians, and its high fiber content promotes satiety.

NOW Real Food Organic Freekeh has a nutty, slightly sweet flavor with a delicious hint of smokiness. Freekeh is extremely versatile and is often used in place of rice and quinoa in many recipes. Cracked Freekeh cooks relatively quickly with a chewy texture similar to barley. Use it in salads, soups, cereals, stuffings, bread, and so much more!

Because you are what you eat, NOW Real Food has been committed to providing delicious, healthy, natural foods since 1968. We're independent, family owned, and proud of it. Keep it natural. Keep it real.

Suggested Use

  1. Place 1 cup NOW Real Food Organic Freekeh and 2 1/2 cups water in sauce pan on medium-high heat.
  2. Allow for mixture to come to a boil then cover and place on low heat.
  3. Cook Freekeh for 20-25 minutes or until the water has evaporated.
  4. Allow Freekeh to cool for 5 minutes and serve.
