Pulses and grains brand, Merchant Gourmet, is extending its offering with the launch of a new super grain: Wholegrain Spelt.
The brand noted that its latest launch offers health-concious shoppers an ancient super grain which contains a higher percent of protein, fibre and nutrients than rice or couscous.
Richard Peake, Managing Director at Merchant Gourmet, said: “As a simply cooked product, our Wholegrain Spelt acts as a conduit for flavour, allowing our shoppers the flexibility to experiment and add their own flavours. Getting protein from non-processed sources where possible – such as spelt, beans and lentils – is so important and we want to make it as easy as possible, with great-tasting products that offer high nutritional value and are ready in no time at all.”
Merchant Gourmet’s new ready-to-eat Wholegrain Spelt is rolling out in Sainsbury’s with an RRP of £2.00 for a 250g pouch.
