The only wheat in existence that has never been hybridized, einkorn grew thousands of years ago in the Fertile Crescent. Carla Bartolucci came across it when searching for an alternative grain for her daughter, Giulia, who was diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. Einkorn has remained unchanged for thousands of years, which allows many, including Giulia- who suffered from mood swings, asthma, and digestive problems- to eat wheat without symptoms. Amazed by her daughter’s health transformation, Carla became a champion of this little known, nutrient-packed grain.
Einkorn: The Cookbook shares 100 delicious recipes for working with the grain and its flour in a wide variety of flavorful dishes, such as Yogurt Blueberry Muffins, Spinach Lasagna Bolognese, Neapolitan Pizza Margherita, and Soft & Chewy Ginger Cookies- as well as sourdough and yeasted breads like Classic French Boule and buttery Sweet Potato Rolls. This book also explore einkorn’s history, unique genetics, and superior nutrient content, while sharing Carla’s tips for using it to its full baking and cooking potential.
