Milled to order Emmer Flour brings a nutty, aromatic FLAVOR to baked goods and pastas. It can be used in place of your common whole grain flour keeping in mind that it contains the bran and germ. Because this grain is such a nutritionally dense grain, the germ and bran absorb moisture quickly- more so than other whole wheat flours. When following standard recipes you may find that you need to add more moisture than what the recipe calls due to this. It can be used as a alternative for some people suffering from wheat or gluten allergies. Some of our costumers bake with it exclusively! The flour is ground fine for multi-purpose use. It is great for hearty breads, muffins, Cookies and makes extraordinary pastas.
