About Wheat bran, crude
Crude wheat bran is what gets stripped away when whole wheat is milled into white flour, and it is one of the most fiber-dense ingredients in a standard pantry. The fiber here is almost entirely insoluble, which means it adds bulk and speeds transit through the digestive tract rather than dissolving in water. Protein content is surprisingly high for a milling byproduct. On its own the flavor is nutty and slightly earthy. Stir a spoonful into oatmeal, blend it into muffin batter, or mix it into yogurt. It won't dissolve or disappear, and that's the point.
