Why buy Organic Flour?

Organic flour is healthier and more nutrient-rich than conventionally-grown flour. It is free from synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, which can leave harmful residues on the wheat and affect its nutritional value.
Organic flour is produced using sustainable farming practices, which support healthy soils, biodiversity, and the overall health of the environment.
Organic flour has a more natural and robust flavor, making it perfect for baking and cooking.
Organic flour is free from genetically-modified organisms (GMOs), which have been linked to numerous health concerns.
Organic flour supports small, local farmers who are committed to ethical and sustainable farming practices. By choosing organic flour, you are helping to support the growth of these farms and the communities they serve.

What is bread flour?

Bread flour is a type of wheat flour that is specifically designed for use in baking bread. It is made from hard wheat varieties that have a high protein content, typically between 11-13%. This protein, known as gluten, is responsible for the elasticity and structure of bread dough.

Bread flour has a coarser texture and higher gluten content than all-purpose flour, which makes it ideal for creating the structure and rise of bread dough. It is typically used in bread recipes that require a lot of kneading and shaping, such as baguettes and artisan breads.

Bread flour can also be used in recipes that require a chewy texture, such as pizza dough and focaccia. It can be substituted for all-purpose flour in most recipes, although the resulting texture may be slightly denser and chewier.

Overall, bread flour is an essential ingredient for creating delicious, crusty breads with a satisfying texture.
