I started experimenting with einkorn flour baking a few months ago, but I hadn’t heard much about it up until then. I still haven’t perfected the science, but I do love it for so many reasons! What’s all the fuss about? Einkorn is the first, most ancient form of wheat. It’s older than even spelt...
