Freekeh, also known as "farik" or "frik," is an ancient Middle Eastern whole grain derived from young, green wheat harvested before fully ripening. The wheat grains are then sun-dried, roasted over an open flame, and polished to remove their husks. This unique method of preparation gives the grain its name, "freekeh," from the Arabic word "faraka," which translates to "to rub."
