Products made from white Spelt flour have a mild, delicate taste and a pleasing presence. In modern day Europe spelt has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity. Europeans use it instead of wheat when gourmet appearance and taste are the judgment criteria. Over 9000 years old, this husked grain is much the same as it was when growing wild in the Middle Eastern and European mountain valleys. Environmental pollutants and other outside stresses have little influence on the well protected kernel. Perhaps this is also the reason why spelt is more water soluble and the proteins, particularly the gluten, are much more fragile and easily broken down. Therefore the shortened mixing times found in our directions for yeasted spelt bread stand as testimony to the delicate nature of the dough. The real value of any product is in its use. We are confident that you will find that VitaSpelt flour will give you great tasting white bread that will give you old world goodness that meets modern day standards for texture and taste. Consumer Notice: VitaSpelt brand spelt flour uses only 100% spelt grain (no common durum or club wheats). As of January 1, 2006, the FDA has required that all spelt products be labeled as wheat. The FDA has generalized wheat to mean any grain that falls within the triticum genus of grains. This new labeling requirement would include several species of grain including common wheat, durum wheat, spelt, emmer, einkorn, among others. Certified organic by Quality Assurance Intl.
