Organic Hard Red Wheat Flour - Pleasant Grove Farms

Organic, single-origin hard red wheat flour, grown by Pleasant Grove Farms in Pleasant Grove, California and milled fresh to order in Plumas Lake. With a rich, robust flavor, this is our family’s bread wheat of choice for hearty sourdough and rustic artisan loaves. As a single-origin grain, its flavor, protein content and baking character will naturally vary from season to season. Unsifted.

Baker’s note: This season’s crop is lively in fermentation but delicate in structure—a handling style that may feel familiar to bakers who work with spelt. Used on its own, it produces a hearty loaf with a naturally more closed crumb. For a lighter, airier crumb, blend with our higher-protein Hard White wheat flour. We recommend beginning with 75% Pleasant Grove and 25% higher-protein flour.

Protein: approximately 9.5%*

Protein content reflects supplier testing of the current crop and may vary naturally by crop year or lot.

Pleasant Grove Farms is a third-generation family farm who greatly emphasizes its commitment to both the land and team by which it operates. It feels really meaningful to bake with this product knowing its origins, and we hope you feel that way, too.
