Wessex Mill White Spelt Bread Flour 1.5kg
Wessex Mill White Spelt Bread Flour is a premium Spelt flour, great for using in any bread recipe.
Creamy in colour and mildly nutty in flavour, use this soft ancient grain flour like regular white flour.
Spelt, also known as dinkel wheat or hulled wheat, is a species of wheat that has been cultivated since approximately 5000 BC. Spelt was an important staple food in parts of Europe from the Bronze Age to medieval times. Spelt is also more water-soluble than wheat, which makes it easier for the body to digest. Spelt gluten has a very soft feel and gives a very light eating loaf.
Wessex Mill White Spelt Bread Flour is available to buy from Ratton Pantry in 1.5kg bags, 4.5kg packs and 7.5kg packs.
Please note: Spelt flour will only work in bread machines if it has a spelt program. If you want to bake a good loaf use a dough program, remove and gently mold, place in a tin or basket, prove for 20 mins and then bake in the oven.

Allergen advice: for allergens, including cereals containing gluten, see ingredients in bold.
Packed in the UK.

About Wessex Mill
Wessex Mill are a small family flour mill based in Wantage, Oxfordshire. The Munsey family have been milling Oxfordshire for over a 100 years. The mill is currently run by fourth-generation flour miller Paul, with his daughter Emily studying to become a miller as well.
Wessex Mill's flour is milled using local wheat that they collect themselves from farms surrounding the mill. They ensure that only the best wheat with high quality gluten is selected, by testing samples before we bring any into the mill. Being a small mill means they can store the wheats from each farm separately without batching. This allows them to carefully select the wheats that they mix together for the grist to produce quality consistent flour.
Wessex Mill is a traditional roller milling process, as opposed to the modern energy intensive method of debranning the wheat before grinding it into flour. They mill their flour slowly; this means the flour doesn't heat up as much as other flour mills, preventing the protein from damage.
The consistency of Wessex Mill's flour is down to buying good wheat. The area around their mill produces some of the best wheats in the UK. Wessex Mill buy from local farms and picks up the wheat with their own lorries.
