Ecoideas Tigernuts Stone Ground 200g

Ground for use in baking, smoothies, yogurts, hot cereals, and salads.

Tigernuts are small tubers, not actual nuts – an important fact for those with allergies. The ancient Egyptians knew that the fruit of Tigernuts’ grass (Cyperus Esculentes) was highly beneficial, both as medicine and nutrition. Its root tubers are distinguished by an unusually high proportion of fibre and a delicious taste.
