00 Pizza Flour

00 pizza flour is a finely milled Italian flour prized for its versatility in creating authentic Neapolitan-style pizza crusts. Originating from Italy, it is milled to a very fine consistency, which is reflected in its name, 'doppio zero,' indicating its fine grind. This flour has a balanced flavor profile, offering a mild, slightly sweet taste with a subtle nuttiness. Its texture is silky and smooth, contributing to a tender yet chewy crust when used in pizza making. In cooking, 00 pizza flour is known for its ability to hydrate quickly and develop a desirable gluten structure, resulting in a light and airy crust that can withstand high-heat cooking without becoming overly crispy or hard.

Fresh Sorrel

Fresh sorrel boasts a vibrant, tangy flavor reminiscent of lemon and a grassy, almost herbal aroma. Its tender, arrow-shaped leaves offer a crisp, succulent texture that brightens any dish. Originating in Europe, sorrel has long been a staple in French and Eastern European cuisines. Its unique acidity makes it a standout in soups, salads, and sauces, offering a refreshing alternative to citrus. Valued for its ability to cut through richness, sorrel adds a lively zing to both warm and cold dishes.
