With roots tracing back to Mesopotamia, Khorasan (aka Kamut) is an ancient grain cherished for its exceptional nutty flavor and great nutritional benefits. 

Khorasan Flour derives its name from the Khorasan region of modern-day Iran, where it was first cultivated thousands of years ago.

What sets Khorasan apart is not just its rich history, but also its superior nutritional profile.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Higher protein content compared to conventional wheat flour.
  • Rich in essential minerals such as magnesium, zinc, and selenium.
  • Contains a unique combination of amino acids, contributing to overall nutritional balance.
  • Low in fat and cholesterol-free, promoting heart health and overall well-being.

Due to its natural properties, Khorasan Flour tends to absorb more water than conventional wheat flour. To achieve the desired consistency in your recipes, you may need to use slightly less Khorasan Flour or increase the liquid content accordingly.

Experimentation and adjustment are key to mastering the art of baking with Khorasan Flour.

For optimal texture and rise, consider blending Khorasan Flour with lighter flours like all-purpose flour.

 

Like all our products, our Khorasan Flour is 100% natural, with no additives, preservatives, or enrichment.

West Country Mills

West Country Mills, located just outside Bentley, Alberta, is a family-run operation producing high-quality, stone-ground Khorasan flour from wheat grown on their own farm. Customers consistently praise the flour for its exceptional nutty, slightly buttery flavor, which adds depth to baked goods like banana bread, pizza dough, and sourdough.The flour is 100% natural, free from additives, preservatives, or enrichment, and retains the full nutritional benefits of the ancient Khorasan grain, including high protein (14–17%), fiber, and minerals like magnesium, zinc, and selenium.
The mill’s commitment to sustainable, local agriculture resonates with customers, who appreciate supporting a family-owned business that grows and mills its own grain. The flour’s texture requires slight recipe adjustments, as it absorbs more water than conventional wheat flour, but blending it with lighter flours like all-purpose can optimize results. We also commend the fast, reliable shipping and clean, high-quality wheat berries for home milling. The farm’s dedication to customer relationships is evident, with options to refill flour pails and a farm store featuring other local products.
Overall, West Country Mills’ Khorasan flour is highly regarded for its flavor, quality, and the family’s passion for sustainable farming, making it a top choice for bakers seeking nutritious, locally grown ingredients.

Love Khorasan

A beautifully milled flour. I love the flavour it adds to baking. I made the Banana Bread recipe in the blog using Khorasan flour as suggested and OMGosh it was delicious. So I added a little to my pizza dough recipe and it was delicious too! Shipping was very fast.
