Preparation, uses, and tips

Use triticale flour in waffles for a pleasant flavour and scent. You can also sprout the berries, and add the nutritious sprouts to salads.

Buying and storing tips

Purchase triticale prepackaged on the shelves of most natural food stores or groceries, or in the bulk section for maximum savings. Store triticale in a cool, dry area in a sealed glass or plastic container, because air, moisture, and sunlight can cause the oils to go rancid.

Varieties

Triticale is found in cereals and in home baking, such as biscuits, cookies, and breads. It is also available in flake form, or as a whole grain or flour.
