(Raleigh, NC) I saw 3 different packets of assorted grains in the “special purchase” area. They are rather small, about 6" high x 3" wide. The brand is Earthly Grains. There was a 5 grain, a grain (barley?) with peas and green lentils, and a quinoa + something blend. They are priced around 1.89.
I tried the 5 grain the other night. It’s a mix of spelt, barley, wheat, riice & oats. Nothing else! Product of Italy. 1/4 c. dry was a perfect serving for one. I cooked on the stove and found it did need a little more time than directed (10 minuties). Microwave instructions are on package too.
I was pleased and will stop by to purchase more. Nice flavor and texture made for a pleasant side dish. I like that it is just grains, no seasoning added. I’m a light eater so something like this is an easy way to increase the variety of grains for the week.
