Organic Whole Emmer Flour 2 kg

  • $22.95 CAD

Emmer is a foundational Ancient grain and is the second oldest of the four ancestral wheats 

Our fresh milled Organic Emmer flour is naturally sweet and rich with a nutty flavor. It can be used in place of your common “whole wheat” flour for almost any recipe.

This nutritionally dense flour (From 12%, up to 16% protein) absorbs moisture quickly; more so than other whole wheat flour. When following standard recipes you may find that you need to add more moisture (about 1/4 more) than what the recipe calls for.

Emmer flour can be used as an alternative flour for some people suffering from wheat or gluten sensitivities. Some of our wheat-sensitive customers bake with it exclusively!

The flour is ground in a fine grind for multipurpose use. It works best in artisan breads, muffins, cookies, and coffee cakes.  It also yields a wonderful rich brown rustic pasta.

Storage

All flour is perishable, and ours more so than store-bought flour, because we don't add enhancers or preservatives. Once opened, keep your flour in an airtight container. If you won't use it within 30 days of opening, move it to the fridge or freezer, where it stays fresh for up to a year. Whole flours keep less long than white flours, so they're best used sooner or chilled right away.

You are too expensive.
Not interested.
Thanks

Hi Annu, thanks for taking the time to share that. Organic heritage grains like emmer cost more to grow and mill in small batches, but we understand they aren't for every budget. If you ever want suggestions on our more economical flours, reach out at admin@arvaflourmills.com.

Organic Flour

We decided to try Red Fife organic flour. Yesterday I used it in apple, pear, banana sourdough muffins.could not taste the flour itself but added a hint of nutty flavour in the background. Daughters family, in Amherstview read the profile of the Red Fife and there goes our second bag…

New favourite

Emmer flour from Arva is a delightful new grain in my baking, with a bit of a nutty flavour, adding a totally delightful taste to the breads I’ve been recently making. Highly recommended and thank you, Arva!

Red River

Bought several flours/grains/cereals over the past 6 months or so. The products are quality and the prices good even with the shipping. Was most excited to buy a childhood memory of mine in Red River cereal! The Emmer flour was great in pasta making, even for a newly retired beginner. Really like supporting this small historic Canadian company! Will definitely continue buying from ARVA!

Flour

I love this flour! I bake a lot and use it in every recipe without difficulty. I heard as saying once, "improve your flour and it will improve your life." I think this flour hits all of that.

Best flour ever

I started using this flour recently, its the best flour. My blood sugar doesn't spike after consuming it, which is not the case with other regular flours.

Love Arva Flours!

I'm new to Arva and the difference between their products and typical store bought flours is very unique. Not only the feel, colour, flavour but the smell! This is what delicious smells like!

Arva Emmer Sourdough Bread is a Winner!

This is the first sourdough bread recipe I've tried and it's amazing! The bread turned out perfect and tasted even better than it looked. The Arva recipe is easy to follow and the Emmer gives it a little something extra. It's my go to. I'm going to experiment with Emmer flour cookies next!

Pancakes & Waffles.

In an attempt to improve my homemade pancakes and waffles, I thought I'd fry a 3/4 Spelt, as white flour, to 1/4 Emmer whole flour in the recipe. The result was obvious to all who tasted the NEW blueberry pancakes.

Emmer flour is perfect for my sensitive tummy

I haven't been able to find a flour that won’t upset my sensitive tummy. I am not celiac but do have a sensitivity to wheat flour. I tried spelt and it was also hard on my tummy. This flour is the first flour that I can enjoy. It is my sensitive tummy approved.
It also has an amazing nutty flavour. My absolute new favourite!
Thank you Arva

Delicious

I used Emmer flour for the first time and was so impressed with the flavor and soft texture of the bread. I was revisiting sourdough making and aside from my technique in forming needing a refresher course the flavor was amazing!
