Sicilian Organic Ancient Grain Flour Tumminia 1kg | Molini del Ponte

This stone milled organic ancient grain flour is made from Tumminia, also known as Timilia, a traditional Sicilian durum wheat cultivated across the island for centuries. Naturally adapted to Sicily’s warm, dry climate, Tumminia produces a distinctive dark flour with an aromatic, slightly sweet and pleasantly rustic flavo

Molini del Ponte is one of Sicily’s most respected mills, dedicated to preserving Sicilian grain biodiversity and the character of traditional wheat varieties. Their philosophy begins with the grain: exceptional flour comes from exceptional wheat, grown with respect for the land and milled to preserve its natural flavour, aroma and identity.

As an organic ancient grain flour made from ancient Tumminia grain, the wheat is cultivated without synthetic pesticides or herbicides, including glyphosate, and without synthetic chemical fertilisers.

PERFECT FOR BREAD (Pane nero “black bread” di Castelvetrano)

Particularly suited to Pane Nero di Castelvetrano—a traditional Sicilian bread recognised as a Slow Food Presidium—as well as pane casereccio, sourdough and traditional biscuits, Tumminia flour gives baked goods a naturally darker colour, fragrant crust and aromatic crumb, with a distinctive rustic wheat flavour and subtly sweet finish.

STORAGE

Because this is a pure, minimally treated organic flour, made without preservatives, synthetic pesticides or chemical treatments, it requires a little extra care in storage.

In warm conditions, naturally occurring pantry moths (farfalline della farina) can occasionally develop. This is not unusual in natural, untreated grain products. To preserve the flour at its best, keep it tightly sealed in a cool, dry and dark place, away from heat and direct sunlight.
