      This organic flour is amazing! I’ve been making sourdough bread, pancakes, pizza dough….just everything! I wanted to buy some flour made from wheat grown near our hometown of Amarillo, TX.

      Consistently Wonderful

      Having sampled all of Barton Spring Mill's flours, I can say that Rouge de Bourdeaux is my hands-down favorite for bread-making. I use equal parts '00 and whole wheat in my Japanese Milk Bread, and the results are off the charts -- a sturdy loaf with a pillowy, tender crumb. No problem with the proofing, this stuff will RISE. Pairs well with a simple swath of butter and jam or marmalade. The taste is complex, and I detect notes of pecan and sorghum. Just wish that Rouge de Bordeaux were available for purchase at local markets. The shipping costs are killing me, ya'll!

      Great Quality

      I am diabetic and I have been working very hard to eat more natural and less processed food. I bought this flour so I could start making my own quality whole wheat bread. I cannot sit down and eat a whole loaf of bread, but if I eat a couple of slices or make a sandwich I do not see the huge spike in my glucose levels. I still have to be cautious but I don't feel like I am just eating wasted calories. This is not medical advice though. If you are diabetic you have to watch your own carb intake and how your body reacts.

      Love. Love. Love. Great flavor!

      This gorgeous flour was beautifully packaged. I baked a few batards already and it's so delicious.

      Great taste but fussy to work with

      I loved the complex, cinnamon-y, banana-bread-ish taste of this flour. However, my first few bakes my sourdough boule emerged from the oven with a soggy, undercooked bottom. This flour seems to require less hydration than other whole grain flours I have worked with. But the taste was superb!
