Organic Sifted Durum Flour

$5.25 Regular Price

  • Product Info

    Our organic Sifted Durum is very versatile, and you can substitute it for about 30% of the bread flour you normally use in yeast or sourdough breads. It also adds a rich taste and golden color to cakes, cookies, biscuits, quick breads and more.

    We mill this flour from Durum, an ancient grain closely related to Emmer. It's very high in protein, but has lower gluten potential than our High-Protein Flour.

     When milling this flour, we run the ancient grain Durum berries through our stone mill to make Semolina, which consists of particles of the outermost, hardest part of the endosperm. In the process, the softer, finer particles of endosperm, along with minute particles of bran, remain. This  becomes our silky, fine-textured Sifted Durum, which is similar to an 80% extraction flour. It is also similar to semolina rimacinata in terms of specifications, and can be used in any recipe calling for that, or for “extra fancy durum flour."

     Here are some great recipes we developed especially for our Sifted Durum:

One of my FAVORITE Flours

I add this to ALL of my sourdough bread and pizza variations — It adds a beautiful texture, quality, and taste. Depending on what I am making, I typically substitute 15-20%, up to 25% of the required flour.

Simply the best flour I can get anywhere for my fresh pasta and pizza doughs.

Great Flour!

Tried this because it was on sale. It’s the first time I ever baked with it. I will be using a lot from now on.

Durum flour

High absorption rate - ideal for mixing with a lower protein flour like the dark rye. Nice color, excellent flavor. Recommend.

A learning experience with sifted durum flour

I tried the tartine recipe and bought the flour to learn and expand my knowledge of the difference kinds. In retrospect I erroneously thought the bread would be less dense...and while I loved working with the dough (it was soft and lovely and almost luxurious) and the loaves came out very nicely, I prefer a more open crumb. But the experimentation will go on. The bread does have a great flavor and toasts wonderfully.
