Kavılca (Emmer) Wheat

Kavılca Wheat: An Ancestral Grain's Place in the Kitchen

Kavılca is an ancient grain counted among the ancestral wheats and known for its hulled structure. When cooked, its grains stay plump and slightly firm, leaving a sweetish, hazelnut-like taste on the palate. For palates accustomed to modern wheat, it offers a familiar yet different experience and brings a texture from the past to the table.

Tufan Organik delivers kavılca wheat to your kitchen as whole grains, together with the other products in its grains range. Soaked overnight and boiled, it can be used in many recipes, from salads to soups. Setting the boiled grains aside in a container and adding them to different dishes during the week is a practical way to add flavour to several meals with a single preparation.

Usage Suggestions

• Prepare boiled kavılca as a wheat salad with pomegranate, parsley and olive oil.
• Use kavılca grains instead of rice in yoghurt-based soups.
• Add a handful of boiled kavılca to meat or vegetable casseroles for a hearty one-pot dish.
