Description

What is Organic Wheatgrass Powder?

Wheatgrass is the young leaf of the common wheat plant, Triticum aestivum, cut while it is still a green shoot and long before any grain forms. The blades are dried and milled into a fine, vivid green powder — 100% wheatgrass, with nothing added.

The colour is entirely natural and comes from chlorophyll. The flavour is what you would expect of a young grass: fresh, green and grassy, with a slight sweetness and a savoury edge. Grown in Hungary.

Why you’ll love it

Wheatgrass has been a fixture of juice bars and health kitchens for decades, and powder is a far more practical way to use it than growing trays of it at home. It dissolves readily into liquid, needs no preparation, and a bag lasts a long time at a teaspoon a serving.

Because the flavour is strong it goes further than you might expect, and it blends well with sharp, sweet fruit that balances the grassiness.

How to use Wheatgrass Powder

Blend 1 tsp into water, juice or smoothies daily. Mix thoroughly — best served cold. Begin with a small amount and increase gradually.

It works particularly well with pineapple, apple, lemon, ginger and banana, all of which cut through the green flavour. It can also be stirred into yoghurt, added to a green soup at the end of cooking, or used to colour and flavour raw energy balls. Add it off the heat where you can, as heat dulls both the colour and the flavour.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does wheatgrass powder taste like?

Fresh, green and grassy with a slight sweetness and a savoury finish. It is a strong flavour — most people prefer it blended with sharp or sweet fruit rather than in plain water.

How much wheatgrass powder should I use?

One teaspoon a day, blended into water, juice or a smoothie. Start with a small amount and increase gradually.

Does wheatgrass contain gluten?

Wheatgrass is the young leaf of the wheat plant, harvested before the grain develops. We declare wheat as an allergen on the label and make no gluten-free claim, so this is not suitable if you are avoiding gluten.

Why is it so green?

The colour comes from chlorophyll in the young grass blades. Nothing is added — the powder is 100% dried, milled wheatgrass.

Can I cook with it?

It is best added off the heat. Stir it into soups or sauces at the end, or use it cold in smoothies and raw recipes, since heat dulls the colour and flavour.

Is it vegan?

Yes, suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
