Why should I care about using fresh milled flour?
1. Nutrient Powerhouse: When a grain is milled, its bran and germ—where most of the vitamins, minerals, and fiber live—are exposed to air, and they start to oxidize. Conventional flour can sit on shelves for months! Fresh-milling means you get the grain at its peak, preserving essential nutrients like B vitamins, Vitamin E, and healthy oils.
2. Flavor You Can Taste: Seriously, the flavor of fresh-milled flour is vibrant, nuanced, and rich. You’ll notice a huge difference in your sourdough, cakes, and pancakes. Say goodbye to the bland flavor of highly processed flour!
3. Digestive Kindness: For many people, store-bought flour can be tough to digest. Retaining the whole grain (and all its fiber) and using it fresh can make baked goods much more digestible and satisfying.
Think of it like coffee: would you rather drink coffee made from beans roasted months ago, or beans roasted and ground right before you brew? Fresh is always best.
