Hemp Seed, Hearts and Protein Powder

Whole seed, hulled hearts, protein powder, pressed cake: the same small kernel shows up in the pantry under several names, and they are not interchangeable. This section covers what each form is, how hulling changes texture and shelf life, why hemp seed is best kept cold and dark, and what to look for when buying. Useful whether you are sprinkling hearts on porridge or working out which protein powder suits your baking.
