Kamut®

Illustration

Preparation, uses, and tips

Kamut flour can be substituted for wheat flour in most recipes. Combine cooked kamut with dried cranberries and feta cheese for a quick cold salad, or use it as the base for pilafs.

Buying and storing tips

Find prepackaged Kamut on the shelves of most natural foods or grocery stores; buy it in bulk for maximum savings. Store it in a cool, dry area in a sealed glass or plastic container, because air, moisture, and sunlight can cause the oils to go rancid.

Varieties

Kamut is found in cereals and in baked goods, such as crackers, cookies, and breads. It is also available in flake form, or as a whole grain or flour.
