What it is
Stone ground wheat flour is made by grinding whole wheat berries between two stones. This traditional method retains more of the wheat kernel's natural oils, fiber, and nutrients compared to modern roller milling.
Why it's used
It is used as a whole grain flour in baking, providing a heartier texture and nutty flavor. It's commonly found in breads, crackers, pancakes, and other baked goods where a rustic quality is desired.
Health notes
Stone ground wheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. As a whole grain, it contributes dietary fiber and nutrients. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated whole grains and their components. Evidence suggests whole grains are part of a healthy diet, but specific health effects of stone ground flour compared to other whole wheat flours are not extensively studied.
Allergen info
Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Stone ground wheat flour contains gluten.
