- Q: What is Einkorn Flour and how is it different from modern wheat flour? A: Einkorn Flour is made from 100% ancient einkorn wheat, which has remained unchanged for over 12,000 years. Unlike modern wheat flour, Einkorn is unbleached, unbromated, and non-enriched, preserving its natural nutrients, fiber, and protein. It offers a richer flavor profile and is gentler on digestion due to its lower gluten index.
- Q: How can I use Einkorn Flour in my baking? A: Einkorn Flour is versatile and can be used in a variety of baked goods such as sourdough bread, pasta, pancakes, and pastries. Due to its rich, nutty flavor, it enhances the taste of your recipes without the need for added sugars. You may need to adjust the liquid in your recipes slightly, as Einkorn flour absorbs moisture differently than modern flours.
- Q: Is Einkorn Flour suitable for people with gluten sensitivities? A: Einkorn Flour has a naturally low gluten index, making it gentler on digestion than modern wheat. However, it is not suitable for those with celiac disease. If you have gluten sensitivities, you may find that Einkorn is easier to digest, but it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before making any dietary changes.
- Q: What nutritional benefits does Einkorn Flour provide? A: Einkorn Flour is a good source of plant-based protein and fiber, offering 7g of protein and 6g of fiber per serving. It is rich in lutein and antioxidants, which support eye health, and contains up to 40% less phytic acid than modern wheat, enhancing mineral absorption. Its nutrient-dense profile makes it a healthier choice for baking.
- Q: Where is Einkorn Flour sourced and how is it processed? A: Our Einkorn Flour is grown and stone-milled in Sicily, Italy, using traditional, sustainable farming methods. The slow, low-temperature stone-milling process retains the flour's natural fiber, protein, and essential vitamins, providing a pure and chemical-free product that is free from glyphosate and preservatives.
