Papa Vince Organic Einkorn Flour 4.4 lb (2 x 1 kg) Stone-Ground Whole-Grain — Sicilian, USDA Organic, Nutty-Sweet Flavor

Papa Vince Organic Einkorn Flour is a single-ingredient, stone-ground ancient wheat from a Sicilian family farm, milled into whole-grain flour for baking rustic loaves, pizza, pastries and more.

This einkorn flour is USDA Organic, cold stone ground in small batches in Sicily and shipped in two 1 kg bags to preserve freshness. Einkorn is the direct ancestor of modern wheat and offers a distinct nutty-sweet flavor and different dough behavior than contemporary wheats. It’s a whole-grain product with nothing added or removed—no bleaching, no bromates, and no synthetic enrichment—intended for home bakers who value provenance, texture, and taste.

How does Papa Vince einkorn flour behave differently in recipes?

Einkorn hydrates more and more slowly than modern flours, producing a denser, golden crumb if handled like common wheat. To get the best results, increase the liquid gradually (up to about one-third more), use gentler handling, and allow longer rest times rather than aggressive kneading. Expect a softer gluten structure and a naturally sweet, nutty profile that enhances simple recipes.

• Add approximately 20–33% extra liquid compared with standard wheat recipes and adjust by feel.
• Use gentle folding or stretch-and-fold techniques instead of vigorous kneading.
• Allow longer autolyse or bulk-fermentation to hydrate the grain and develop flavor.
• Best results for sourdough, rustic loaves, quick breads, cookies and pizza crusts.

Is this flour low-gluten or safe for gluten-sensitive diets?

Papa Vince einkorn is lower in gluten strength compared with modern wheat, but it is not gluten-free and is not suitable for people with celiac disease. Some bakers with mild wheat sensitivities prefer einkorn because of its ancient, weaker gluten structure, yet anyone requiring strict gluten avoidance should not use it. All purchasers should read labels and consider personal tolerance.

• Contains gluten—unsuitable for celiac disease or strict gluten-free diets.
• Often better tolerated by some wheat-sensitive bakers due to different gluten structure.
• Sold as whole-grain einkorn with no additives or enrichment.

What nutritional and ingredient qualities make Papa Vince einkorn stand out?

This product is single-ingredient whole-grain einkorn, cold stone ground to retain protein, fiber, and flavor. It contains approximately 7 g protein and 6 g fiber per 56 g serving, milled at low temperature to preserve nutrients and natural sweetness. Farming is glyphosate-free and processing avoids bleaching or bromating, delivering an honest whole-wheat profile.

• USDA Organic einkorn from a Sicilian family farm, stone-ground in small batches.
• No additives: unbleached, unbromated, never enriched with synthetic vitamins.
• Declared nutrition: roughly 7 g protein and 6 g fiber per 56 g serving.
• Packaged as two 1 kg bags to keep flour fresh and easy to store.

How much baking does one package make and how is it packaged?

Each 2.2 lb (1 kg) bag is compact and protective; a full 2.2 kg (4.4 lb) purchase typically bakes multiple loaves and batches, offering value compared to artisan bakery pricing. The packaging limits dust and tearing by shipping small imported batches rather than oversized sacks, so your flour arrives intact and ready to use. Use measured conversions and recipe scaling; one 1 kg bag usually yields about one large sourdough loaf or a batch of cookies depending on recipe.

• Sold as two 1 kg bags for freshness and easier handling.
• One 1 kg bag can make roughly one large sourdough loaf or multiple cookie batches.
• Small-batch shipping reduces torn sacks and flour dust at delivery.
