Kamut® Wheat Berries (Bob's Red Mill, 24 Oz)

KAMUT® Brand Wheat is an ancient grain, guaranteed under the KAMUT® brand, to never be modified or hybridized, always organically grown, and is prized for its nutrition, ease of digestibility, sweet nutty-buttery taste, and firm texture. It is a source of protein, fiber, and vitamins and is high in minerals, including selenium. It's grown on certified organic farms primarily in the Northern Great Plains of North America, where the dry climate similar to its origins ensures the best quality is consistently obtained. KAMUT® Brand Wheat is distinctive. It is about three times larger than most modern wheat, is elongated with a pronounced “hump”, and is uniquely vitreous with a rich golden color.

Most likely originating in Mesopotamia, legends exist of this grain being found in Egyptian tombs. Farmers in Turkey call the grain “Camel’s Tooth” because of its shape or the “Prophet’s Wheat,” referring to another legend that Noah brought the grain with him on the ark.
