Pure, Unfortified, and Gently Milled. As a traditional small-batch mill, Stoate's is exempt from regulations requiring artificial fortification. While industrial mills strip nutrients during high-speed processing and must add them back artificially, Stoate's gentle stoneground method preserves the wheat's natural goodness. This results in a distinctive creamy colour, the sign of a flour that is 100% natural and completely free from synthetic additives, including folic acid.
A Note on Baking
Because this is an authentic, unstandardised product, it behaves a little differently to commercial flours. It naturally possesses a slightly lower protein (gluten) content, meaning it is less 'strong'. The dough requires a gentler touch and a little more care during preparation, and you may notice a slightly lower rise. The reward, however, is a loaf with an exceptional, traditional flavour that mass-produced flours simply cannot match.
On the label
Please note This item is packed in a stitched paper sack. The stitching can sometimes become loose and small amounts of flour may leak as a result. We reserve the right to repair the stitching using gummed paper tape. A repair of this nature does not affect the quality or the life of the product.
