PBSのサイトより。ホワイトブレッドと全粒ブレッドの違いが上手くまとめてある。
全粒でもその「素性」が大事らしい。コーヒー豆に通じるものがある。
Food Terms
Whole wheat
Grains that contain all of their bran, germ and endosperm. Refined grains, such as white flour used in white bread, contain little if any germ or bran, and therefore significantly less fiber and fewer nutrients than whole grains.
Landrace wheat
A genetic grandfather wheat that has been introduced around the world and given birth to new geographically-specific varieties wherever it has landed.
Heritage grain
A heritage grain is from a seed that embodies thousands of years of unbroken human-plant co-evolution, effort and reverence.
– Andrew Still
Identity preserved grain
Labeling that protects the characteristics that define a unique grain or crop, as enhanced by a specific place, farming practice and milling process.
この辺はCommunity Grainsでも詳しく説明してあるけれど、そのCommunity Grains、そういえばこんなカンファレンスを開くらしい。
2014 Conference on the Development of Our Local Whole-Grain Economy
Progress Report & To-Do List
When: Sunday, March 9, 2014, 10 AM to 4 PM
Where: Oliveto Restaurant, 5655 College Ave., Oakland California 94618
TartineのChad RobertsonやCraig Ponsfordが登壇するのも興味あるが、Olivetoの昼食付き、というのも心惹かれる。でもこれってやっぱりプロのパン職人向けの会議なんだろうな。
