What is Manitoba Flour?

Manitoba flour originates from N America in particular from the vast Canadian province of the same name. The name itself derives from an ancient native Indian tribe who grew a special variety of wheat which was strong and resistant to the freezing winters. The wheat has particular characteristics which cannot be found in most other flours, notably it’s strength.

0 Manitoba flour has a W value (used to measure a flour’s strength and resistance) of 280 – 300, much higher than the normal 180 – 200 of normal 00 soft grain flours.
