Freekeh is young wheat that is harvested approximately one month and a half before it matures, between April and May, while the wheat is still green and milky... When harvested, freekeh is tied into piles and left to dry in the sun for 3-4 hours. The piles are then roasted over an open wood or charcoal fire, on the ground, for 10-15 minutes and then stored in the shade for a couple of days.
