Tips & Tricks
- We found that these pastries are best when freshly baked, as they tend to become slightly soggy and dense if left to sit.
- Substituting Einkorn for other flours: Adjust liquids by 10-20% as it absorbs less water than modern wheat. Mix gently. Einkorn’s weaker gluten structure results in dense baked goods when overmixed. Combine with other ancient grains like spelt or emmer for lighter textures.
- Valued Vendors: We like to use Einkorn or ancient grain flour in our recipes. Jovial Foods offers high-quality, organic Einkorn products.
