Yecora Rojo is a standout performer for bread making; it is texturally smooth and lightweight, while exuding buttery and creamy flavors that enhance the end results of any baked item. Out of all the varietals we offer, Yecora Rojo is a Mill favorite! It can be used as bread flour in any recipe. Learn more about it in this video.

A favorite of West Coast artisan sourdough bakers, like Tartine, Yecora Rojo was developed by the International Maize & Wheat Improvement Center in Cooperation with the Mexican ministry of Agriculture in Mexico. It was first received in California in 1970.

Hi Thom! Please take a look at our storage instructions here. Whole Berries have a shelf life of up to 6 years when cared for correctly. This means transferring berries to an airtight container, storing out of direct sunlight, ideally in a climate stable environment. Left to the elements in the original packaging, the shelflife is lessened. As for milled flour, we recommend storing in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer for 4-6 months. Looking forward to connecting with you via email. ~Team BSM

One of my favorites

I always have and use Yecoro Rojo in many of my sourdough bakes because of the great flavor with retarded fermentation or proofing. I love the flavor and the protein strength. This and Rouge de Bordeaux are my two favorites to add (35-55%) to bread flours for great performance and flavor.

Love this company for delicious grains! Quick delivery!

Great ‘00’ alternative for sourdough bread

I usually make my two-loaf sourdough batch with 65-75% white flour (King Arthur or Bob’s). Acquired Stardust (and Tam 105) to experiment as substitutes. Used about 40% Stardust, 20% Tam 105, 15% organic white. The remainder Red Fife whole wheat. Mix was easy, hydration requirements (75%) about the same. Dough quality very smooth and extensible. Flavor excellent: nutty and wheaty, great crumb, chewy crust. Finished color was lovely. Can’t wait to open my Yecora Rojo and Butlers Gold for the next batch

nice that it's ancient grain

I appreciate that it's an ancient grain. However, I cooked it for an hour and a half, and it was still kind of grainy in texture. Not what I expected from polenta. I would use it in other cornmeal recipes.

Best whole wheat flower EVER!!!!
Transforms my sourdough!!!!
