Ivory Teff

Teff is a wonderful grain--easy to grow, gluten-free, and great flavor. The world's smallest cereal grain, each gain about the size of a poppyseed. Because of this, it is super-nutritious--less of the grain is just starch. Makes a wonderful hot cereal with no grinding required--I like this MUCH better than oatmeal. Or use as polenta. Of course, if you grind it, you can use the flour for any recipe that doesn't need a high gluten content. In fact, my favorite wheat-free baked goods are teff. This ivory variety produces baked goods that are whole-grain but light in color and flavor. Start early in flats if you have a short growing season, or if you have weed problems with grasses--the little seedlings look like lawn grass at first. Otherwise, just direct-sow on your last frost date and thin to 8" spacing. This is a high-yielding crop. This is a short-season strain called AL White. Seed grown by Brookside Farm. 500 seeds
