Qu'est-ce que le/la/l'Barley Flour ?

Barley flour is a whole-grain flour made from finely ground barley kernels. It is known for its mild, slightly sweet, and nutty flavor, and its lower gluten content compared to wheat flour. Often used to add fiber and a unique taste to baked goods, it results in a denser texture.

"Its unique texture contribution makes it ideal for enhancing the chewiness and structure of artisan breads and heartier baked goods."
