Turkey Red can be traced to Crimea between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov in the early 19th century and earlier to Turkey to the south of the Black Sea.

Mennonite immigrants brought it to the United States in the early 1870s, introducing it to the areas surrounding Marian, Reno and Harvey Counties in Kansas.

It became the dominant hard red winter wheat in Kansas and throughout the Great Plains in the 1920s. Excellent “wheaty” flavor, very good milling and baking properties.

I have used this flour in both whole wheat for rustic sourdough loaves as well as 00 for pizzas and it works fabulously in both. I want to buy more of it, but I am trying to try all the flours before I buy too many repeats. Excellent quality and great flavor.

Use for magic bread

Order went well and arrived as promised.

Great taste

I’ve used the turkey red wheat flour for two different applications now and I love it. My neopolitan pizzas in my wood fired oven are way more flavorful, and the pancakes I made this morning were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this flour and this company. Keep doing what you’re doing BSM.
