Shipton Mill Malted Wheat Flakes
Shipton Mill Malted Wheat Flakes, now available at Ratton Pantry and a great accompaniment to a large selection of Shipton Mill's incredible artisan flours.
Shipton Mill Wheat Flakes come from carefully selected wheats, which have been malted, soaked in water and then laid out evenly across the malting floor where the slow process of germination begins to take place.
During germination, the natural enzymes in the wheat transform the carbohydrates that are present into sugars. The wheat's sugar levels are carefully and continuously monitored, and when they reach the correct level, the malster dries the malted wheat to caramelise the sugar. This caramelisation gives the malted wheat is characteristic flavour. Lastly, the whole wheat is flaked and packaged into sacks.
Malted Wheat Flakes can be used in a variety of different ways, and particularly when baking bread, either including them in the dough itself or by sprinkling them over the crust. The flakes will help to enhance the flavour of the loaf, resulting in a distinctive malted flavour. Try soaking the flakes in water and then drain them before adding them to your loaf to give them a softer texture.
