    2014 Khorasan crop failure - sad news, Four Leaf Mill's Khorasan crop did not make it this year due to unexpected frost. We'll try to source another brand though we did love this Australian Khorasan Flour.
     
    Four Leaf Mill's Khorasan Flour is sourced from the original pure strains of khorasan grains found within the ancient Egyptian Tombs. This strain has been grown in Australia for the past 40 years by the Four Leaf Mill family and is Certified Organic!

    This delicious Khorasan flour has a sweet buttery, mild nutty flavour and a smooth texture. A preferred flour to those wanting an easily digestible, healthy and nutritious version to processed conventional wheat flours.

    Four Leaf's Stoneground Unbleached Certified Biodynamic Khorasan Flour - Egyptian Gold Flour (1kg)

    Higher in protein, amino acids and minerals compared to modern wheat especially selenium - an antioxidant, zinc, magnesium, Vitamin E and B vitamins and essential fatty acids. Also known as a 'high energy' wheat due to its higher percentage of lipids, which produce more energy in the body than carbohydrates.

    Produced by stone grinding whole khorasan grain, with the bran sifted out. No bleaching, no additives, no further processing is done. This results in the perfect substitute for whole khorasan flour to create lighter flavoured products. Less heat is created by the traditional stoneground method, preserving nutrients.

    Khorasan wheat is an ancient Egyptian wheat from which modern day durum wheat was derived. It is one of the earliest cultivated grains.

    Gavin from Four Leaf Mills was given 6 grains over 30 years ago, which he promptly planted in the vegie garden. These grew well, so they were planted in subsequent years. The wheat grows about 30 to 60cm taller than normal varieties and has a beautiful black beard. It is very striking in appearance. The grain is nearly twice the size of normal wheat.

    If you like a healthy buttery flavour to your baked goods, you'll love this one! Perfect for pasta, pizza, breads, biscuits, scones and muffins and any of your favourite baked goods - try this healthy delicious alternative..

    Good for people who cannot tolerate wheat. It is more easily digested and assimilated than regular wheat grain so, like spelt, some people with wheat sensitivities can tolerate it.

    About Four Leaf Farms:
    Four Leaf Farms - certified biodynamic since 1989. A clean and fertile farm in a uniquely balanced ecosystem, situated in a region of rich red brown earth in the hills and plains of the Tarlee district in South Australia. Herbicides, pesticides, fungicides or fumigants have never been used.

    Four Leaf Milling Pty.Ltd. was established in 1968 to process the grain from Four Leaf Farms and to maintain control over quality of the finished grain product. Grains in our Four Leaf products are grown on our farms and other selected certified Australian Bio-dynamic and Organic farms.

    Our innovative stone milling methods coupled with stringent certification and inspection requirements guarantee that products of the highest quality are produced.

    Four Leaf Milling Pty Ltd is a family company. The five members of the Dunn family are all involved in this vertically integrated operation, which includes farming their 2,500 acre farm, operating their own mills and packaging and distributing their own product.

    Clean, Fertile Farm:
    The farm that has been certified bio dynamic since 1989 has been chemically 'clean' for the past 80 years, the only blemish being one application of super phosphate in the early 1940's. The farm is located in rich red soil country near Tarlee, South Australia's prime cereal growing area. Farming practices place great emphasis on continually improving soil.

    Vertically Integrated Allowing Quality Control:
    The majority of the Four Leaf products are grown on Four Leaf Farms, particularly those derived from wheat, barley, oats and rye, allowing highest quality control at all process stages. The area is considered to produce some of the best oats in Australia and Flour Leaf's bio dynamic rolled oats, which even when independently tested were found to have some of the highest levels of Vitamin E ever encountered.

    Own Design and Built Milling Operation:
    The family has designed and built the milling equipment used including Sienna granite stones required to meet the rigid specifications for high quality flours. These stone mills ensure the grain is milled at slow speed without excessive heat thus preserving the integrity of the quality and vitamin content of the flour.

    Vast Organic/ Bio Dynamic Experience:
    Gavin Dunn is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable Organic/Biodynamic farmers in Australia, having been the founding member and Chairman of the Biological Farmers of Australia, an adviser to the Federal Government and has represented Australia on international committees.
