ABOUT GACER BREAD
The cereal with 28 chromosomes in the thermal spring wheat group is known as gacer in Kayseri and its surroundings. Grown in the villages of Develi, Gacer wheat is an ancient type of wheat with a non-genetically modified ancestry.
Bread made from Gacer wheat, which is identified with the district of Develi, will compete with other breads with its rich protein content, bran milling and being fully organic. Bread, which facilitates digestion with its high fiber and bran content and low glycemic index, may be a remedy for those who have weight problems. Drawing attention with its low gluten content, Gacer wheat is preferred due to its very good pulp content and high quality protein content.
Unlike other grains, Gacer can be consumed directly from the field after threshing without any processing, so it does not suffer from nutritional losses.
