Bacheldre Organic Stoneground Spelt Flour, 1.5kg

Description

Bacheldre organic stoneground spelt flour is 100% wholegrain spelt flour for making bread with a distinctly nutty flavour.

Spelt is an ancient grain that’s been farmed in Great Britain for thousands of years. Although it contains high levels of gluten, the structure of the gluten is ‘fragile’ compared to that of commercially farmed wheat. This makes spelt much easier to digest.

Bacheldre organic stoneground spelt flour is suitable for baking by hand and with bread machines. It includes a recipe for spelt loaf.

Bacheldre Mill is run by husband and wife team, Matt & Anne Scott. When they first came across the mill in the Welsh marshes, it was a working museum grinding around a tonne of grain a month. There’s been a watermill at Becheldre since 1575, and when they bought it the Scotts decided it would be fantastic to keep the tradition alive.

They may use electric motors, but the Scotts still use traditional millstones. These preserve the natural goodness and flavours in the wheatgerm, and has helped Becheldre Mill’s flours win awards and become the flour of choice for some Michelin-star chefs. Almost all of the grains they use to produce their flour are organically grown here in the UK.
