• Basic Instructions: Gluten flour, added to other flours in bread recipes,gives the dough extra elasticity and protein, resulting in a finer qualitybread. When using gluten flour for this purpose use 1 Tbsp. or less percup of other flour. Gluten flour can also be used to make gluten steaks,a meat alternative. These are made by mixing the gluten flour (1 cup)with cold water (3/4 cup), cutting the dough into slices and then boilingin broth one hour.
• Azure Farm is located in the foothills east of Mt. Hood with a fantasticview of the Cascades and farm land in the valleys below. This is wheatgrowing country where dry-land farming produces an abundance of soft whitewheat and other grains. But what makes our farm different from most otherwheat farms is our growing practices. Weve been growing organically forover 25 years, and are attempting to go beyond basic organic (which onlyensures which harmful things have not been used). We try to keep up withorganic soil amendments that will actually improve our soil, and consequentlyimprove the food itself.
• Any items with the Azure Farm label which are not grown on Azure Farm,are from farms which we know have been growing organically for many years,doing whatever they can to ensure healthy soil, so the food on your tableis also healthy.
• Why go organic? Organic foods are grown without synthetic fertilizers,pesticides, or herbicides. Organic foods are not genetically modified.Organic foods are grown in soil that is nurtured, not treated... whichmeans top soil, groundwater, rivers, lakes, streams, watersheds, fish &wildlife, and people are not compromised. Healthy food grows in healthysoil. You can often taste the organic difference!
