Turkey Red winter wheat was introduced to Kansas in 1873, carried by Mennonite immigrants from Crimea in the Ukraine, fleeing Russian forced military service. In the mid-1880s, Bernard Warkentin imported some 10,000 bushels of Turkey seed from the Ukraine, the first commercially available to the general public. That 10,000 bushels (600,000 pounds) would plant some 150 square miles (10,000 acres). By the beginning of the twentieth century, hard red winter wheat, virtually all of it Turkey, was planted on some five million acres in Kansas alone.

It is reported that some people who have wheat intolerence are able to eat bread made from Turkey Red flour. It is reported by bakers, that the gluten appears different from other flours and the resulting bread is lighter and very favorable.

WOW!

This flour is amazing! I've used heritage flours for quite some time and happened upon your website - I ordered 5 lbs. sort of on a whim and I am so glad I did. I made bread & English muffins and WOW!!! My wife and I are the entire loaf of bread in two days... my grandkids devoured the English muffins - I only got a bite I stole! It is unbelievable how good this flour is - I went through 5 lbs. in less than a week and need to order more!

A great companion for einkorn flour

When I read that the turkey red wheat flour worked well for those who have sensitivity to wheat, I knew I wanted to try it. This flour pairs well with einkorn flour in making bread, waffles, etc. I like Niobrara's waffle recipe.
