    Grind Your Own Flour

    The wheat berries I have ground into flour and used so far are really terrific. The taste of this flour is not like anything that can be bought at a grocery store. If you are thinking about grinding your own flour, you won't be disappointed with these wheat berries.

    Star of the show…

    … or supporting actor. I use this as the majority ingredient for whole grain wheat breads, or as the “bread flour” component in rye. It’s nice not having to use white flour.

    Keep those Yecora Rojo wheat fields producing!

    As long as this full flavored, high protein wheat is available at BSM, it will be in my order cart. I love the sweet malty, complex flavors developed after a long, cool fermentation and warm proof. Whether I'm baking at 100% whole wheat or basing the loaf with a medium protein white flour, this delightful grain never fails to perform.
