Rosengarten Dinkels Organic Spelt Crackers
The well-known phrase ”eating like a horse“ comes from the Middle Ages. When the grain was brought into the barn, the grains had to be knocked out of the ears with a flail using muscle power. For the hard work, farmers hired day labourers, so-called threshers, who beat the grain. Flail threshing required a lot of practice in addition to strength. The flail struck the grain with its entire length only when the movement was correct. This hard physical labour naturally made the workers very hungry. Since the farmers also fed the day labourers, ”eating like a horse“ was a reproach for the high additional costs.
Today combine harvesters take care of mowing and threshing in one step. Thanks to modern technology, large fields can be harvested within a few hours. But not every grain can be put into the mill straight away. Grain with husks such as oats, barley or spelt must first be freed from the husk after harvesting. Husks are the inedible wood fiber layers that surround the individual grains.
Spelt was grown in Europe until the early 20th century. Then it was replaced by rivet wheat in many places. With this type of grain, the grains fall out of the husks almost by themselves. This not only eliminated a complex processing step; Rivet wheat also brought higher crop yields and was better influenced by artificial fertilizers. In addition, the demand for white bread rose. But spelt has been making a comeback for several years. Spelt bread and spelt bread rolls are already part of the assortment for many bakers. Spelt flour is becoming a tasty alternative not only for pizza and pasta, but also for snacks.
