Ingredient Snapshot: The new Di Prim ´Ordine Farina from General Mills Foodservice gives pizzerias and bakeries a premium, European-style flour that they can now get closer to home. The “00 Style” Pizzeria Premium Professional Flour is high-quality, untreated flour milled from a select blend of domestic hard winter wheat, making it a great option for hand stretching and a hot, fast bake.

Available in 27.5-pound bags, Di Prim ´Ordine Farina flour is easy for pizzerias to adjust to meet their formula needs. Beyond pizza, the new flour (with a name that translates to “first-class flour”) can be used to make a variety of baked goods and artisan breads.

27.5-pound bag (12.5 kilos)
Milled from select varieties of wheat to ensure maximum consistency and baking performance
Tolerant to wood-fired ovens, perfect for Neapolitan-style pizza crust
