A popular bread wheat in the late 1800s. Though it has less gluten than modern bread wheats, with care, it can make a nice yeast or sourdough bread today.

Sarah has made a video of how to make bread with this wheat's sifted flour here.

A hard red spring (HRS) bread wheat popular in Canada from around 1860 until the early 1900s, when it was replaced by better yielding varieties (though not better tasting). An heirloom variety that pre-dates the intensive breeding that occurred during the "green revolution" of the 1940s and 1950s.

Certified organic

Red Fife has less gluten than our HRS (Glenn) variety, and is therefore harder to make into bread. However, it is heirloom, certified organic and I feel has a superior flavor.

FLOUR: Red Fife sifted

3 cup flour
1 ½ cup water
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon yeast

Mix ingredients then knead, with a kitchen-aid or by hand, for 5 minutes.
Let sit at room temperature for 2 hours, covered with a towel. Then sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, covered. The dough can sit in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
When ready to make bread, break off a softball size dough ball and flatten it. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of sugar or honey. Fold 5 to 10 times, and place into a well oiled loaf pan, flatten the dough out to the shape of the pan. Cover with a towel and let rise at room temperature for at least 1 hour. The dough won't quite double.
Preheat oven to 425 F. Bake for 15 minutes and then brush with butter or oil. Bake another 10 minutes.
Cool before slicing

A low gluten pastry type wheat that is appropriate for bisciuts, pie crust, pancakes and some quick breads. While low on gluten, it does have a relatively high protein at 11%.

Purple Straw wheat is thought to be the secret ingredient to old time Southern biscuits. A variety of wheat from the 1700s, pre-dating the Revolutionary War, was popular in the "South" until it was crowded out by better yielding modern wheat varieties in the 20th century.

Certified organic

A certified organic spring Einkorn wheat we just started growing a couple years ago. It has a nice flavor and works well as an All Purpose or Pastry flour substitute, but seems to need some help if using it for yeast breads. It also hydrates differently than our other flours, so typically, less water (or liquids) will be needed if substituting it in a conventional stone ground flour recipe.

We are still learning about baking with it, so would love to hear any comments you have concerning it.

Note on Sifted flour option: Is a high extraction stone ground flour which has the larger pieces of bran removed. A lighter compromise between the heavy 100% whole wheat flour and white flour.

We do also have berries available, but occationally miss a hull. If you are O.K. with an occational hull, email me about berries. Thank you. brian@qualityorganic.com

Einkorn is considered by many as an ancient grain. It has 14 chromosomes instead of the 42 chromosomes found in modern wheats. It has a higher protein than any of our other wheats (16%), but a different and weaker gluten proteins.

It was grown, stored, hulled, cleaned, milled and packaged on our farm near Dwight Illinois.

Fourteen-year-old Tore Neeson, the village trouble-maker, steals a master carpenter's priceless Nativity to save his sister's life, but a reversal of fortune leaves him more destitute and desperate than ever. To his frustration, he soon finds himself indentured to the very man he wronged.

Gourdseed corn was popular, prior to the American Civil War, stone ground into cornmeal to make cornbread. It fell out of favor to dent corns which could be milled into either grits or cornmeal. It's whole kernel cornmeal is a little bit like wheat flour and it makes a flavorful cornbread, with a texture that begins to feel almost like cake.

It was sometimes referred by the Indians as tooth corn, and got either name because of the shape of it's kernels. Either it's similarity to a gourd's seed, or to rows of kernels that look like teeth.

Made from certified organic yellow dent hybrid corn. NOT HEIRLOOM. Ground kernels and cracked kernels have had the flour/fines sifted out of them allowing them to store better. May contain an occational weed seed or field debris.
