What is kibbled wheat?

Kibbled wheat is a processed form of wheat that has been partially cooked, dried, and cracked into smaller pieces. It is often used in soups, stews, and other dishes where a chewy texture is desired. Kibbled wheat can also be eaten on its own as a hot cereal or as an ingredient in granola.

To make kibbled wheat, whole wheat berries are first cleaned and sorted to remove any damaged or foreign material. The berries are then soaked in water for several hours to soften them. After soaking, the berries are cooked in boiling water for a short period of time, usually around 10 minutes. The cooked berries are then drained and spread out on trays to dry. Once dry, the berries are cracked into smaller pieces using a grain mill or other suitable equipment.

Kibbled wheat has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor and a chewy texture. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and other essential nutrients. Kibbled wheat can be found at most natural food stores and some supermarkets.
