Concerned about the fortification of UK white flour?
In the UK, commercial white flour is legally required to be fortified with added calcium, iron, niacin, and thiamineβplus mandatory folic acid (yikes for synthetic Folateπ¬π¬π¬). Many have contacted us to express their preference for unrefined and natural flour or at least have the choice while shopping.
At Shropshire Organics, weβre passionate about giving you complete control and transparency over your food so you can find the following on our website:
-Unfortified Organic White & Strong White: Weβve sourced 1.5kg flour bags from a small traditional mill that currently sits outside standard industrial legislation to source true, unfortified stone-ground organic white flour. (Both plain and strong white)
-100% White Spelt Sourdough: Weβve teamed up with the wonderful to bring a new 100% white spelt sourdough. Double brownie points for ancient grain, too!
There's also 100% wholemeal options that naturally retain the entire wheat grain without any synthetic additives, for those with less fussy children than ours π
We're constantly exploring new options to make good food as convenient and accessible as possible.
