About Wholemeal rye groats
Wholemeal rye groats are rye kernels that have been cleaned and may be cut or hulled for cooking, while retaining much of the grain. They are tan to brown, firm when dry and chewy when cooked, with an earthy, robust cereal flavour.
They can be simmered for porridge, added to soups or used in grain dishes. Groats may vary in how much they are cut or hulled, so cooking time and texture are not fixed by the name alone.
