Stone-Ground Whole Wheat Flour

Back to Homemade Bread with Stone-Ground Whole Wheat Flour

Whole wheat flour is made by grinding the grain together with its bran and germ; this is why it is darker in color than white flour and has a more pronounced aroma. Stone-ground flour has a slightly coarse texture and gives dough a full-bodied character with the taste of grain.

This flour is one of the staple products sought by bread and pastry lovers at the Tufan Organik counter. Since its water absorption differs from that of white flour, adding water to the dough little by little gives good results. If you like, you can mix it with white flour to get a softer bread.

Serving Suggestions

• Country-style whole wheat bread leavened with sourdough or fresh yeast
• Pide and lavash dough made by mixing it half and half with white flour
• Cookie and cake recipes enriched with cinnamon and walnuts
