## About
A glass of cold water, a level teaspoon, a quick whisk, and the glass clouds to deep jade. The scent that rises is somewhere between cut hay and spinach: a green start to an ordinary day.This powder is milled from pressed young wheatgrass juice rather than the whole dried leaf, so it settles to a fine, matte green, the color of a shaded lawn. The grass is cut at the jointing stage, days before the plant forms a seed head, when the blade is most tender and richest in chlorophyll. It is juiced fresh and spray-dried at low temperature within hours of cutting, to protect enzymes that heat alone would destroy. Young cereal grasses have been juiced and dried since the health kitchens of the mid-twentieth century, though the impulse to eat a plant's earliest, most tender growth is older still.DetailsYoung wheatgrass juice, cut at the jointing stageJuiced fresh, spray-dried at low temperature within hoursFine, matte green powderHow to useWhisk one level teaspoon into cold water, juice or a smoothie each morning.
