Some of popular green cultivars are Thompson seedless, sugarone, and calmeria. Red varieties include emperor, red globe, cardinal, and flame seedless.
Freekeh (pronounced âfree-kaâ) is a versatile superfood packed with nutrition and health benefits. It is produced by harvesting grains while still soft, young and green, then parching roasting and drying. The process captures the grains at a state of peak taste and nutrition.reekeh can be used in a variety of ways: 1  as a side dish (prepared and served like rice). 2  as an ingredient in soups and stuffings. 3  served with greens and dressing as a salad. 4  to make vegetarian burgers.
Basically, cooking freekeh is just like cooking quinoa and many other grains. You combine the freekeh with water (and sometimes a bit of optional salt) in a saucepan, bring it to a boil, then cover it and allow it to simmer.reekeh is sold as âwholeâ or âwhole grainâ and as âcracked.â That might seem confusing, but basically, âcrackedâ freekeh has just been broken into smaller pieces. This allows cracked freekeh to cook faster (which is why we typically choose cracked freekeh here at THK), and also gives it a slightly different texture.
