Hemp Hearts-Article from Vancouver Sun Jan 3/2012

You might need a side trip to the healthy food store for hemp seed, but it's worth it. Hulled hemp seeds are spectacularly high in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and are an excellent source of protein. The heart of the hemp seed is also extraordinarily rich in vitamin E, phosphorus, manganese and magnesium. Throw hemp hearts in every where: smoothies, sandwiches, over cereal and savoury dishes. You can crust meats with hemp hearts, salt and black pepper, or add them to bread and pastry recipes for texture and a nutty flavour.
