| Once popular with millers and bakers, Flanders is quite unlike any other British wheat, being soft but with good bread making qualities. |
Flanders is a winter-sown medium-straw wheat, grown in Britain in the 1970s and 80s but now almost extinct.
Our Flanders flour is stone-milled in small batches through our own stone mill at the Hodmedod Mill House in Suffolk, from Flanders variety wheat grown by Jeremy Dickin at Oak Farm in Lincolnshire.
Stoneground and wholemeal it retains its full nutrients and flavour and is ideal for baking, pastry and cakes.

Stoneground wholegrain Flanders variety wheat flour is an excellent soft but quality flour, perfect for biscuits and pastries, it can also be used for bread making, especially baguettes (after all it is of French ancestry).

We made two batches today one with 100% Flanders flour and the other with 2/3 Flanders to 1/3 White Spelt. We made large rolls (or cobs as we call them) and small loaves. The 100% Flanders was a little more rustic and very tasty. We feel the 2/3 to 1/3 makes a really good all purpose bread. We will be buying more!
a delicious well-flavoured flour, which give us the results we like for our bread making - and also great for pastry! We always try and get Flanders flour, and having tried some of the other flours here the family think this is the best, and are upset when it gets sold out!!
The taste is very good, but the greatest strength I’ve found is in handmade, yeasted bread.
I aim for a Cranks style heavier bread, with minimal kneading but a couple of hours fermenting as a batter.
Fermentation and gluten development are quicker than any other flour I’ve used.

Wonderful results and so easy with a soda bread recipe. Lovely colour,density and flavour.
I use 3 measures of Black Wheat and add to it 1 measure of Strong White Flour.
Sometimes I add mixed grain flour as well. Always a perfect product,
I am an impulsive cooker and have rarely soaked any pulses when I fancy them. The naked peas (essentially split peas) solve this problem. The pink ones stayed more whole than yellow split peas, a fact I love. The taste is similar to yellow peas with a hint of red lentil and a texture similar to chick peas. I haven't tried it for houmous yet, but it should work a treat.
Just started a mainly vegan diet and had not realised how many beans you can buy! No idea what to choose so just bought this bundle. Tried a couple of recipes so far from the site and really wonderful. Who knew beans were so versatile and tasty!
Interesting to see these cooking instructions. However, I would like to recommend YQ as a bread flour. After some five years of using various Hodmedod's wheats for my bread, this is one of the very best I have tried - I get loads of compliments from family and friends whenever I bake with this flour.
Just arrived - quickly - but really looking forward to trying them.
