Variety cereal cuisine
Good Crop wants to help eat healthier, more sustainably and with more flavor, and does so with kitchen-ready grains for bowls and more. Steffi tried it out at the Munich Food Lab and we are now convinced that cereals should be used much more often in the kitchen
Already when opening the package from Good Crop, the anticipation rises. Because then suddenly a variety of well-portioned original cereal packets lies in front of you. I especially like the fact that the variety of products makes quick and healthy cooking accessible to you. A high quality product from sustainable production with transparent origin by linking the organic farmers.

Good Crop can be prepared either directly cold in a salad, in a cereal, or as a hot full meal or side dish. Without long soaking and cooking times, you can get started and thus eat wholesome and uncomplicated. Also, the crunchy texture makes you eat more consciously and enjoy chewing your meals properly instead of gulping. The variety of 12 original cereals gives you variety and fine combinations in everyday life.
My choice fell on a lupine and red grain combo, which I tossed with lots of crunchy veggies, herbs, a miso mustard dressing, and a few dashes of sesame pine pesto.

Knead the flour, water, yeast, salt, yogurt and olive oil for 10 minutes with the dough hook until a uniform dough. Then work the onion-mushroom mixture into the dough. Cover and let rest for half an hour. Divide into 4 parts, roll out thinly and bake each with a little canola oil in a coated pan until golden brown on both sides. As soon as the pancake blisters, it can be turned over.
