Foricher Tour de Mains

Description

This specialized version of the “Tour de Mains” range is a nutritional powerhouse. It combines the rustic authenticity of T80 stone-ground wheat with a complex blend of three cereals and five distinct seeds. This flour is designed for bakers who want to create “health-forward” artisan breads without sacrificing the superior handling properties of French milling. Like all Foricher products, the wheat and rye are CRC® certified, grown sustainably, and stored without insecticides.

Best Uses

This flour creates a dense, flavorful loaf that is rich in fiber and “slow sugars” (complex carbohydrates).

  • Multigrain Sourdough: The inclusion of rye and spelt provides excellent food for wild yeast, resulting in a vigorous ferment and complex tang.
  • Breakfast Loaves: Perfect for slicing and toasting; the heat releases the oils in the flax and sunflower seeds.
  • Artisanal Rolls: Great for high-end burger buns or dinner rolls that require a rustic look and extra crunch.
  • Gourmet Toasts: Ideal for savory toppings like avocado, fresh cheese, or seafood spreads.

Why Morning Import Recommends It

We love this flour because it is a “complete” solution for multigrain baking. Instead of sourcing and mixing individual seeds—which can often lead to inconsistent distribution—this Foricher blend ensures a perfect ratio in every bag. The stone-ground T80 base ensures the bread remains moist and flavorful, while the high protein content ensures the loaf maintains a great rise despite the weight of the seeds. It is a sophisticated choice for those wanting to offer a premium, healthy option in their product line.
