About Whole grain durum wheat

Whole-grain durum wheat refers to intact durum wheat kernels retaining their bran and germ. The kernels are typically hard and amber to golden, with a firm texture and a mild, wheaty flavour. They may be sold dried and uncooked or cooked for use as a grain.

Whole kernels can be simmered for grain dishes or milled into durum products. This record refers to the whole kernels, not semolina, refined durum flour, or pasta. Commercial products may differ in whether the kernels are cracked or otherwise processed, so check the form on the package.
