Organic Timilia durum wheat flour.
Timilia flour is an exceptional product obtained from ancient Sicilian organic durum grains. This flour can be derived either from the Triticum durum variety affine, characterised by its white rests, or from the Triticum durum variety reichenbachii, known for its black rests. Cultivated using traditional methods and milled using the natural stone of La Fertè in Sicily, Timilia flour is distinguished by its quality and authenticity. It is particularly suitable for the preparation of rustic bread, offering a crumb with an intense colour and an unmistakable aroma of dried fruit. In addition, it is ideal for creating tasty baked goods such as pan pizza, focaccia and breadsticks, always guaranteeing a genuine, traditional taste.
