"Gruau" Wheat Flour - T55  -  France  -  

"Gruau" French Flour T55 High-Gluten flour appropriate and recommended for use in all pastry recipes or applications. Croissants, puff pastry, brioches, pain au lait this flour has a higher gluten content (13% versus 8% for ordinary flour) resulting in higher and fluffier finished products. All of our flours are UNBLEACHED and UNBROMATED!

Brothers Arnaud and Xavier Roupsard are "artisan meuniers" (artisanal millers) and all of our imported French flours are produced in their two historical mills located in Normandie. A dedication and passion for well-crafted flour is at the heart of their endeavor, and each year they produce a limited quantity of refined flours sought after by the most demanding pastry chefs and bakers.

French classification for flour is based on the resulting amount of residue after processing 10 kg (22 lbs of flour) in a 900ºC (1,650ºF) oven. T45 or Type 45 is the lowest and whitest flour with only around 45 grams of mineral contents left after the burning process and no part of the bran (outer enveloping shell of the grain) remaining. T65 to T150 are considered whole flour classifications with a higher degree of mineral contents and more bran leftover (higher number means higher bran content). Please note that a T45 flour corresponds to a "00" (doppio zero) italian flour type, with T65 a "0" italian type.
