CENTRAL MILLING: ORGANIC HIGH MOUNTAIN
This flour is made with 100% Dark Northern Spring wheat grown in deep volcanic soil in the Pacific Northwest. We only use our highest quality spring wheat in this flour. It will give your hi-gluten applications superior performance. Ideal for pan breads, focaccia, or blending with lower protein flour to add strength.
