Azure Farm Yellow Split Pea Flour, O

These flours are made using our Unifine Milling Process. In the Unifine Process the beans enter a high speed rotor and is instantly shattered into fine flour. Air goes through the rotor with the beans and blows the flour out, thus keeping it cool throughout the process, retaining many nutrients. With the Unifine Process the natural oils in the beans are kept intact and do not get hot like in regular grain milling and stoneground milling.

These flours are processed in a mill which also processes wheat flours.

This flour is excellent for 3 minute soups, dips and to add to all your home-baked goods for a more complete protein.

The recipe included on the back of this package was provided by bean-expert Rita Bingham, author of Country Beans.

INGREDIENTS: Organic Yellow Split Pea Flour.

• Note: This flour is processed in a mill which also processes wheat flours.

• Azure Farm is located in the foothills east of Mt. Hood with a fantastic view of the Cascades and farm land in the valleys below. This is wheat growing country where dry-land farming produces an abundance of soft white wheat and other grains. But what makes our farm different from most other wheat farms is our growing practices. We’ve been growing organically for over 25 years, and are attempting to go beyond basic “organic” (which only ensures which harmful things have not been used). We try to keep up with organic soil amendments that will actually improve our soil, and consequently improve 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 table is 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... which means top soil, groundwater, rivers, lakes, streams, watersheds, fish & wildlife, and people are not compromised. Healthy food grows in healthy soil. You can often taste the organic difference!
