Bob's Red Mill Organic Kamut Stone Ground Flour
What it is
This is a whole grain flour milled from organic Kamut khorasan wheat berries. Kamut is an ancient grain known for its large kernels and nutty, slightly sweet flavor. The stone grinding process helps to preserve the natural oils and nutrients found in the wheat germ and bran, contributing to a richer taste and texture compared to roller-milled flours. It is a versatile ingredient for various baking applications.
How people cook with it
This flour can be used in many of your favorite baked goods. It adds a unique flavor and texture to breads, muffins, and cookies.
- Whole grain bread baking
- Savory scones
- Hearty muffins
- Pancakes and waffles
When baking with this flour, you may find it absorbs liquid slightly differently than all-purpose flour. It can be used on its own or in combination with other flours. For breads, it lends a chewy texture and a distinct nutty undertone. In cakes and cookies, it contributes a denser crumb and a satisfyingly robust flavor. Experiment with different ratios to achieve your desired results in both sweet and savory recipes. It works well in quick breads and yeasted doughs alike.
How it differs from similar foods
The stone-ground method also results in a coarser texture and a more pronounced flavor profile, with notes of sweetness and nuttiness that are less apparent in finely milled flours.
Who it is for
Home bakers looking to explore ancient grains will appreciate this flour.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store the remaining flour in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. For longer storage, it can be kept in the refrigerator or freezer to prevent spoilage and preserve its flavor.
