Description
Loose Chestnut Flour from certified organic farming packaged with Love in eco-friendly paper packaging
The high quality Italian organic loose chestnut flour is obtained through the drying, cleaning and roasting and subsequent grinding of the chestnuts. With a sweet taste, it is very fine, with a color that varies from light to darker beige, depending on the level of roasting of the dried chestnuts. The degree of roasting also determines the taste and bitterness of the flour. It is mainly produced below 900 meters above sea level in the mountain areas where the domestic chestnut tree grows.
Keep the loose organic chestnut flour in a cool, dry place (12°C-14°C), well ventilated and preferably away from sources of light and heat.

Ingredients
Chestnuts from certified organic farming.
Uses in the kitchen
In the past, organic chestnut flour was a staple food that replaced the fine wheat flour in poor cooking.
It is still today a very versatile ingredient, useful for the preparation of both sweet and savory recipes.
In the kitchen, among the sweet preparations in which organic chestnut flour finds its use, we find: muffins, pancakes, sweet polenta, pancakes, cakes and the famous castagnaccio.
This flour is used in the kitchen to make cake doughs softer thanks to its ability to retain more moisture.
It can also be used in savory preparations such as for example to prepare creams (e.g. chestnut and chickpea flour cream), to thicken soups, or to make gnocchi, or pasta, or bread, or for example panzerotti.
Being obtained from dried chestnuts, it is naturally gluten-free, so celiacs can therefore consume it safely.
It is essential to sift it before use as it has a non-grainy, almost starchy consistency and a tendency to compact and clot.
