Organic Black Emmer Flour

$9.25 Regular Price

  • Product Info

    We stone-mill this whole-kernel flour from organic Black Emmer, a rare ancient grain also known as Farro Nero. The word “farro” comes from pharaoh, as this grain was originally grown in ancient Egypt. When the Roman Empire expanded there, they brought this grain back to the continent, and it became known as farro nero, the “black grain of the Pharaohs.”

    Black Emmer is an extremely versatile flour, good in yeast or sourdough breads, as well as in cookies, pancakes, zucchini bread and other quick breads. At 11% protein, you can use Black Emmer Flour instead of All-Purpose in your favorite recipes, and bake something truly extraordinary — delicious and highly nutritious!

Makes very tasty bread

It was the first time I baked a sourdough bread with Black Emmer and it made a delightful loaf. Great flavor, great texture, I like taste and texture better than regular whole wheat flour and it was rising quite well too. The next breads will certainly include Black Emmer and I will add Rye, Bulgur and Quinoa for even more flavor and texture. It will be interesting to see how the rising goes as this can be very heavy doughs (I am of European heritage and love heavy, dark dense, chewy breads).

I used for sourdough and making Rotis

My sourdough came out bueatifully, with a soft interior and great crust. My rotis were perfectly moist on the inside and not stretchy at all

Black Emmer is excellent!

I have made sour dough bread using Black Emmer (about 200 g) and it has been delicious. I used about 100 g spelt too. And the High Protein. All your flour just outstanding!

Our new favorite whole grain loaf

I have tried various whole wheat flours to make our “everyday” whole grain bread (for sandwiches and toast) and this is our hands-down favorite. It has a rich flavor and buttery texture that is just wonderful. I use a basic white (KAF organic bread flour) sourdough starter (18 oz) plus 10.5 oz black emmer and 2 t salt. So easy and so good

Great taste

Even with my feeble sense of taste, I can taste and enjoy Black emmer flour. I usually combine with sifted artisan or high protein 50/50 in sourdough bread.
