So, what is farina de blat de sègol?
"Farina de blat de sègol" is a Catalan phrase that translates to rye flour in English. It is a finely ground powder produced by cleaning, tempering, and milling the dried grains of the cultivated cereal plant Secale cereale, commonly known as rye. This ingredient is frequently listed on food packaging from Catalan-speaking regions in products such as rustic breads, crispbreads, crackers, sourdough loaves, and various traditional baked goods.
farina de blat de sègol is vegan because it originates purely from a plant source. The manufacturing process involves mechanical crushing and sifting of the rye grain, including its bran, germ, and endosperm. No animal tissues, dairy, eggs, or animal-derived processing aids are utilized during standard agricultural harvesting or grain milling. As a pure cereal grain derivative, it is completely free from animal inputs and is suitable for individuals following a vegan lifestyle.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
