About bolted flour: Bolted (or high-extraction) flour is whole grain flour with some percentage of the bran sifted out, which makes it a nice compromise between hearty 100% whole grain and all purpose white flour. It’s ideal for when you want a lighter loaf or dough yet wish to retain the high nutrition found in the germ of the wheat berry.

Rouge de Bordeaux is a hard red winter wheat that dates back several hundred years to the Bordeaux region of France. This wheat makes an excellent bread with a rich brown color, mellow flavor, and baking spice aroma.

Protein content: 15%

Our Rouge de Bordeaux wheat berries are grown from non-GMO seed without the use of chemical inputs and employing farming practices such as multiple crop rotation and cover crops that nourish and regenerate a healthy soil. Healthy soil grows a nutrient dense and naturally pest and disease resistant plant, that translates to healthy, disease resistant humans.

This Rouge de Bordeaux is not USDA Certified Organic.

Since this flour contains wheat germ and wheat germ is an oil, this flour will not keep for as long as typical commercially milled white flour. Do not purchase more than you expect to consume within a few months. We recommend keeping your flour in air tight packaging or container and storing in a cool place or preferably the refrigerator or freezer.
