The Golden Ancient Grain: Premium Khorasan
Heirloom Whole Grain Milling | The Richest of All Healthy Grains
Step back in time with Khorasan, an ancient wheat variety prized for its massive golden kernels and legendary nutritional profile. At Kern River Milling, we apply our signature whole grain milling expertise to this “King Tut’s wheat,” producing a flour that is naturally buttery, nutty, and incredibly smooth. If you are looking for the best whole grains to diversify your baking, Khorasan offers a unique combination of ancient genetics and modern culinary performance.
Why Khorasan Ranks Among the Best Whole Grains
Khorasan is a nutritional powerhouse, often containing 20% to 40% more protein than modern whole wheat. Because it has never been hybridized, many people with mild sensitivities find it much easier to digest than standard whole grain products. It is also exceptionally high in antioxidants, selenium, and magnesium, making it a true standout in the category of healthy grains.
When we mill our Khorasan, we use a stone-ground process that ensures the grain’s natural sweetness is preserved. Unlike mass-produced flours, our whole grain milling keeps the germ and bran intact, delivering the full spectrum of vitamins found in authentic whole grain foods.
Elevate Your Organic Whole Wheat Bread & Pastries
Khorasan’s naturally high protein and golden hue make it a favorite for artisan bakers. Its unique gluten structure creates a different “stretch” than typical whole wheat, resulting in a rich, firm crumb. Use it to transform your kitchen:
-
Artisan Loaves: Adds a stunning golden color and buttery depth to organic whole wheat bread.
-
Fresh Pasta: Traditionally used for premium noodles because of its golden amber tint and firm texture.
-
Rich Pastries: The natural sweetness of Khorasan means you can often use less sugar in cookies and muffins.

Pizza & Flatbreads: Provides a sturdy, flavorful base that stands up to bold toppings.
