Spelt is reddish in color, and has a nutty, somewhat sweet and mild taste. Spelt is a wholegrain, rich in <b>iron</b>, <b>zinc</b>, <b>protein</b> and <b>calcium</b>. </p><p>It is considered a light grain, meaning it won't weight down baked goods like <a href='whole_wheat_flour.html'>whole wheat flour</a> does. It is also much easier to digest than wheat. The gluten in spelt is more fragile, it breaks down more easily and so it's important to not knead too vigorously (that will result in a crumbly texture). Less gluten also means it won't rise as well, so a starter may be necessary, that, or more baking powder or yeast.

It is used to make many different foods. Cereal flour is the main ingredient of bread, which is a staple food for most cultures. Wheat is the most common base for flour, as is corn flour and rye flour. Cereal flour consists either of the endosperm, germ, and bran together (<a href='wholegrain_wheat_flour.html'>wholegrain wheat flour</a>) or of the endosperm alone (<a href='all_purpose_flour.html'>all purpose flour</a>).</p></div><ul><li><a href='crackers.html'>crackers</a></li><li><a href='halloween_pumpkin_cookies.html'>halloween pumpkin cookies</a></li><li><a href='no_knead_bread.html'>no knead bread</a></li><li><a href='pandanus_fruit_bread.html'>pandanus fruit bread</a></li><li><a href='sourdough_spelt_flatbread.html'>sourdough spelt flatbread</a></li></ul><hr/></main><footer><a href='about.html'>Grimgrains</a> © 2014—2022 <a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/' target='_blank'> BY-NC-SA-4.0</a><br><a href='http://100r.co/' target='_blank'>Hundred Rabbits</a></footer></body></html>
