Kavılca (Emmer) Whole Wheat Flour

A Time-Honoured Grain Flavour with Kavılca Whole Wheat Flour

Kavılca is an ancient wheat variety known for grains that cling tightly to their husks. Stone-ground, this whole wheat flour carries the bran and the full character of the grain into the dough. It is darker in colour than white flour, with a coarser, livelier texture; in baked dough it leaves a distinct wheaty aroma and a subtle nutty flavour.

It can be used on its own or blended with white flour in baked goods such as bread, pide and bazlama (Turkish flatbreads). Because whole wheat flour absorbs more water, keeping the dough a little softer and giving it time to rest yields good results. Tufan Organik added kavılca flour to its catalogue to bring the taste of this time-honoured grain to everyday tables.

Usage Suggestions

• Replace half the flour in homemade bread with kavılca for a fuller crumb.
• Use it in bazlama and gözleme dough to create a slightly crisp, dark crust.
• Choose it for buttery savoury cookies and crackers to bring out its nutty flavour.
