Crack Wheat (የስንዴ ቅንጬ)

Cracked wheat is a whole grain product used in baking made from grinding or chopping wheat berries into varying particle sizes. It gives grainier, earthier tones to pancakes, muffins, and other baked goods it is used in. Cracked wheat is a popular health food because it is a whole grain. Wheat is naturally high in folate, iron, calcium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, vitamin E, and several B vitamins, which makes adding cracked wheat to products a healthy choice. Cracked wheat also has high fiber content, making it even more popular among health food advocates. Fine cracked wheat can be used to replace some or all of the wheat flour in some baked goods. It can also be used as a replacement for rice, accompanying meats and chicken.
