Perciasacchi flour, 100% Sicilian wholemeal flour of durum wheat Perciasacchi, natural stone milled.
The Perciasacchi wheat (literally that makes hole to bags) owes its name to the pointed shape of its grains that used to pierce the jute bags in which they were contained during transport. The characteristics of this wheat are very similar to the Khorasan wheat (better known as Kamut), but it is a Sicilian wheat that is not transported inside the holds of ships with a high probability of mycotoxin development. It is a grain very resistant to drought, suitable for crops in hot and dry countries and does not require the use of chemical fertilizers. Moreover, thanks to its height, between 150 and 180 cm, it does not need the use of chemical herbicides against weeds. Thanks to the presence of carotenoids, Perciasacchi flour is yellow and it has a fine particle size that make it ideal for bread making. The flavour, aromas and nutritional content of this precious grain have remained unchanged over time.

Type of grinder: the type of tumbled grinder indicates a stone-ground flour, but without bran, recommended for pizza, wholemeal pizza, fresh pasta.
