White 70% durum wheat flour 1kg

The ancient grain of durum wheat with a history of 10,000 years is also known as Zeia! Characterized by an 'al dente' texture and nutty flavor, it is hearty and easy to digest. Research has shown that Zea contains 40% more magnesium than other cereals. The high levels of the amino acid lysine make pasta produced from Zea particularly digestible. A bread made from durum wheat can be included in our daily meals if paired with honey or tahini for breakfast, or incorporated into any other meal of the day as it provides maximum nutritional value.
