Spelt is a one of many grains in the wheat family with loads of nutritional goodness...it's easier to digest than wheat so sometimes people who are sensitive to wheat can tolerate spelt instead (though it's not gluten-free). Its rich nutty flavor is a favorite in things like spelt spaghetti, cereals and crunchable crispbreads...yumza!

Europeans use a lot of spelt in their bread/desserts, I was surprised with that because in America, you don’t see the word spelt very often in the ingredients! I prefer spelt! Mike’s corn chowder looks tasty!
