About Triticale

Triticale is a cereal grain developed from wheat and rye. The whole grain is used in porridges, grain dishes and baked foods, and it may also be milled or processed into flakes and other cereal products.

Its kernels are typically elongated and range from tan to brown, with a grain flavour that can be mildly sweet and earthy. Whole kernels, pearled or otherwise processed grain, and milled products differ in how much of the original grain remains and how they cook.
