Still biscuits ...

My passion for cookies every time leads me to try new recipes and experimenting with new ingredients. Generally I can never follow a recipe together, I can not resist the temptation to introduce something of mine, is stronger than me, but I always add a new item, whether it's chocolate, almonds, walnuts, jam .. . I do what I said at that time fantasy. And when I attempt the preparation of biscuits, the first thing I do is open the pantry and choose the type of flour to use. Until now, I almost always use the rice flour, not only in the preparation of biscuits, but also in the of pies, cakes, pies and crepes! Its light texture and its particular fragrance makes it incredibly versatile.

But this time to prepare this orange-scented biscuits I used kamut flour.

I discovered this type of cereal only a few months ago.

Wandering between different foodblog, I witnessed all'imperversare a myriad of recipes involving the use of this grain, which is a pure form of flour. Curiosity led me to do some research and allowed me to investigate the many qualities of kamut.

Not everyone knows that this is the ancestor of corn and wheat was discovered and cultivated thousands of years ago in the region located between Egypt and Mesopotamia and is currently being cultivated according to the rules of organic farming exclusively in semi-arid plains of Montana, Alberta and Saskatchewan. Rich in protein, vitamins A, E, C and minerals such as selenium, kamut inhibits the formation of free radicals responsible for many degenerative diseases and aging and appears to be a highly digestible grain.

And now here's the recipe!
