About Mehl

Mehl, the German word for flour, is a fundamental ingredient derived from grinding grains, seeds, or roots, with wheat being the most common source. It serves as a cornerstone in German cuisine, featuring prominently in breads, pastries, and traditional dishes like dumplings and noodles. Nutritionally, standard wheat flour contains carbohydrates, protein, and small amounts of vitamins and minerals such as iron and B vitamins. However, it is typically low in fiber unless made from whole grains. Whole-grain flour offers added health benefits, including improved digestion and sustained energy, while refined flours may contribute to spikes in blood sugar and overall lower nutrient content. Mehl can also be made from alternative grains like rye, spelt, or gluten-free options like almond or rice, offering more variety for dietary needs. Essential to global gastronomy, Mehl’s versatility makes it both a staple and a subject for mindful consumption.
