About this flour

Stone-ground spelt flour for rustic bread and pizza

PuroGrano is Polselli's line crafted for distinctive grain character and artisan baking styles. PuroGrano Spelt is a white spelt flour made from farro (spelt), an ancient grain related to wheat that has been used in traditional Italian baking for centuries. It is stone-ground in Italy for a more rustic flour profile, unbleached, unbromated and milled without chemical additives.

What does spelt bring to your dough?

Spelt has a mild, slightly nutty flavor that adds depth to bread, pizza dough, pasta and baked goods without overpowering other ingredients. In sourdough, it adds flavor complexity and a softer crumb.

How to use PuroGrano Spelt

In most recipes, replace 25 to 50% of your regular flour with spelt to add flavor while keeping structure. For rustic breads and pasta, you can also use it at 100%. Follow your spelt formulas for hydration and timing. Use it for rustic breads and rolls, pizza dough blends, focaccia and flatbreads, sourdough, fresh pasta, and cookies, pastries and rustic cakes, depending on your recipe.

What are the ingredients and allergens?

White spelt flour. Contains gluten. May contain traces of soy, mustard and lupin.

Is it whole grain?

No. It is a white spelt flour, so it is lighter and easier to work into doughs than whole spelt, while keeping spelt's nutty flavor.

Can I substitute it for regular flour?

Yes. In most recipes, replace 25 to 50% of your regular flour with spelt to add flavor while keeping structure. For some recipes, like rustic bread or pasta, you can use it at 100%.

Is it good for sourdough bread?

Can I use it for pizza?

Yes, especially in pizza dough blends. Mix it with a pizza flour like Polselli Classica or PuroGrano Type 1 for a nutty, rustic crust.

What recipes work best with it?

Artisan bread, pizza dough, focaccia and flatbreads, fresh pasta, pancakes, cookies and rustic cakes.

What does stone-ground mean?

Stone-ground flour is milled slowly with traditional stone mills, which helps retain more of the grain's natural flavor and aroma.

Is it gluten free?

No. Spelt contains gluten, so it is not suitable for gluten-free diets.

Where does the grain come from?

The spelt is sourced in the EU and the flour is milled in Italy by Polselli, a historic milling company that has produced flour since 1932.

How should I store it?

Keep it in a cool, dry place and use it by the date printed on the bag.
