Suma Wheat Germ 500g
Suma Wheat Germ is a nutritional powerhouse derived from the nutrient-rich core of the wheat kernel. Although it is the embryo of the wheat plant, it is often separated during the milling process to create white flour. By keeping it separate, Suma provides a potent, concentrated source of essential vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats that can be easily added to your daily meals to boost their nutritional profile.
With a mild, slightly nutty flavour and a delicate, flaky texture, wheat germ is an effortless way to upgrade everything from breakfast cereals and smoothies to baked goods and salads.

Usage Ideas
Because wheat germ is essentially a concentrated nutrient boost, it can be added to almost any meal without altering the cooking time:
-
Morning Boost: Stir 1–2 tablespoons into your morning porridge, yogurt, or cold cereal for an immediate nutritional upgrade.
-
Smoothies: Add a tablespoon to your blender when making smoothies to boost the fibre and mineral content.
-
Baking: Substitute up to 1/4 of the flour in your muffin, pancake, or cookie recipes with wheat germ. It adds a lovely nutty depth and increases the fibre content.
-
Topping: Lightly toast it in a dry pan for a minute or two until golden and fragrant, then use it as a crunchy, nutrient-packed topping for salads, roasted vegetables, or pasta dishes.
Note: Because wheat germ contains natural oils, it is best stored in a cool, dry place and kept in the refrigerator after opening to maintain its freshness and prevent it from going rancid.
