Description
All About Organic Chestnut Flour:
Chestnuts are high in protein, naturally sweet and gluten-free. Made by processing dry, roasted chestnuts into a fine flour, it can be used to replace part of the all-purpose flour called for in a standard recipe or all of the rice flour in a gluten-free recipe.
Chestnut flour gives a great flavour to your bread which you can enhance by incorporating some whole cooked chestnuts. It also has a rich, dark brown colour, which looks dramatic if you flour the tops of your loaves well, giving a lovely contrast of chocolate brown and white when the crusts burst.
This sweet flour is perfect for autumn and winter baking. It lends a nutty, earthy note to anything it's added to.
