Cereals & Grains

Cereals and grains are often avoided due to their high carbohydrate content, but they are full of vitamins, minerals, fibre and protein and make a healthy addition to a vegan diet.
Raw, they should be stored at room temperature in an air tight container. Once cooked they should be stored in the fridge.
For flavour add the grains at the start of the cooking process so that they have the chance to absorb flavours from vegetables, herbs and spices while cooking.
