Product Description
Great River Organic Milling is located on the upper Mississippi River, in the heart of what is called the Hiawatha Valley. The natural beauty of the area is a constant reminder of the importance of our commitment to organic agriculture. Organic, or sustainable agriculture is more than the avoidance of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. An organic farm strives to protect our environment by building and maintaining healthy soil which, in turn, improves water and air quality. It has been shown that grain and other food crops grown in a healthy soil, resist pests and diseases better than conventionally grown crops and also contain more vital nutrients important to humans. Consuming organic foods promotes the health of individuals and the land on which it was grown. In supporting organic agriculture we promote the cycle of a healthy environment which includes the lives of microorganisms, plants, and humans. Most Great River flour is stone-ground. We believe the natural granite millstones contribute to the quality, taste and nutritional integrity of whole grain flour. Grain flowing into the stones becomes very thin, flat flakes which integrates all parts of the wheat immediately into the flour, allowing the flour to have more flavor. The cooler milling occurring with stones allows important enzyme activity to continue. Protein levels will also be maintained. Our stone-ground flours are milled to order, to retain the nutritional value of the flour.

11 of 11 people found the following review helpful By Kiwi Liv "Liv" (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling 100% Organic Bread Flour Unbleached Wheat, 5 Pound Bags (Pack of 4) (Grocery) This flour was a lot more dense and heavier that I was expecting, therefore its making it difficult for me to bake a decent loaf. Since combining it with some normal white flour I have had some better luck, but it may take some trial and error.Overall good flour, but I am not convinced it is any better or worse than other brands, and therefore worth the price premium. I guess I just expected to be WOW'd given the brands reviews... its not bad, but just not what I expected either. 14 of 16 people found the following review helpful Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling 100% Organic Bread Flour Unbleached Wheat, 5 Pound Bags (Pack of 4) (Grocery) I bought this flour 1. because there was free shipping and 2. because organic flour in my area is either bad or very expensive. I was hoping it'd be good but I was thrilled to discover it is excellent. I use it in the famous "no knead bread" My Bread: The Revolutionary No-Work, No-Knead Method and for most the recipes in Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking. It has a great flavor and a nice rich color. It is heavier than your standard white all purpose but if you like to make these artisan types of bread at home I highly recommend this flour and will be buying it again. I hope it is added to the subscribe and save program! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Great River Organic Milling 100% Organic Bread Flour Unbleached Wheat, 5 Pound Bags (Pack of 4) (Grocery) Great River Organic Milling 100% Organic Bread Flour Unbleached Wheat, 5 Pound Bags (Pack of 4Best flour I've ever used in the bread machine. High gluten content yields a loaf with a great crumb and uniform raising. Makes the added expense worth it. |
