Organic Gentilrosso ancient grain whole wheat flour

Description

Organic Gentilrosso ancient grain whole wheat flour, derived from the milling of organically grown ancient soft grains.

It is derived from the Gentilrosso ancient grain, a variety of Tuscan origin that was widely used until the early 1900s. It contains a low amount of gluten and a wide range of proteins. This grain gives the products a characteristic reddish hue, hence the name, and is accompanied by a distinctive fragrance and aroma.

Compared to type 1 and 2 flours, the whole grain flour preserves to a greater extent all parts-starch, bran, and germ-of the grain and is therefore the most complete.

Slow-rotation stone-ground whole grain flour

Our organic flours are ground by natural stone, thanks to millstones made of granite imported from nearby France, in our slow-turning mill.

As the grains are not heated during milling, our process allows us to maintain all the nutritional characteristics of the resulting flours.

This way we spend more time on the production, but as with all good things produced with love … we take the time to make them in the best way possible.

Sourced from our in-house certified organic supply chain

Our entire organic supply chain is based in the green hills of the Umbrian Apennines, but above all it is an exclusively in-house supply chain.

It means we have full quality control of every stage of production, from sowing to harvesting, from milling to packaging.

This is a further guarantee of the traditional values already inherent to organic farming: no chemical treatments, no improvers or preservatives, respect for the earth, and the safety and wholesomeness of the food produced.
