- Jovial Foods - 100% Organic Einkorn Traditional Penne Rigate Pasta - 12 oz. (340g) Jovial Foods 100% Organic Einkorn Traditional Penne Rigate Pasta is nature's original wheat. Jovial Foods is proud to offer you einkorn, the world's most ancient wheat, and the only wheat that's never been hybridized (unlike modern soft and durum wheat), and it has only 2 sets of chromosomes. This is real wheat, the way it was meant to be. Crafted in Italy by expert pasta artisans, who only enhance the inherent goodness of this most ancient grain. Einkorn means "one grain" in German. That's because einkorn only has one grain attached to the stem, while other wheats have groups of four grains. Einkorn (rhymes with "fine corn") is a delicious, healthy alternative to modern, mass market wheat and can be an excellent solution for those with gluten sensitivity. Spiral Pasta 9g Protein, 57g Whole Grains Excellent Solution for Those with Gluten Sensitivity The World's Most Ancient Wheat Packed with More Nutrients, Vitamins, & Minerals than Regular Wheat One 2oz Serving Contains as Much of the Antioxidant Lutein as a Whole Egg Brings a Unique and Delicious Flavor to Your Favorite Pasta Recipe Provides Abundant B Vitamins and Trace Minerals USDA Certified Organic Kosher Never hybridized, einkorn is pure and nutritious, and a wonderful way to improve your health and wellness. Einkorn was one of the first foods planted, at the birth of agriculture 10,000 years ago. It grew wild for millions of years before that. Just a few years ago, einkorn was close to extinction. Einkorn was abandoned 5,000 years ago, because it is difficult to harvest and mill, and has one fifth the yields of modern wheat. It is the oldest food to make its way back to your table. Jovial Foods worked in Italy with a group of researchers who were replenishing original seeds. They started planting just 50 acres in 2009 and now they are the largest growers of einkorn in the world. Einkorn has more protein than any other grain. It is packed with more nutrients, vitamins, and dietary minerals than regular wheat. Einkorn has 40% more protein and 15% less starch than commercial wheat, plus abundant B Vitamins and trace minerals like iron. A Good Gluten? Einkorn grows tall and proud, just the way nature intended. The gluten in einkorn lacks the high molecular weight proteins that many people can't digest. If you are sensitive to modern wheat, einkorn may provide a delicious alternative. Einkorn does contain gluten and is not ok for those with celiac disease. Einkorn Just Tastes Great Einkorn isn't just rich in history and nutrients - it's also packed with flavor. This isn't one of those superfoods you have to force yourself to enjoy. Intensive farming stripped most wheat of its taste along with its nutritional value. Go back to nature's original wheat for a pleasing flavor that will nourish. With einkorn, you can actually taste wheat the way nature intended it. More Nutrients Means More Energy Einkorn has 30% more protein and 30% less starch than regular wheat, plus abundant B Vitamins and trace minerals like Iron. Those extra nutrients translate directly to more energy and a greater feeling of wellness, not empty calories.
