So, what is gerstenmehl?

Gerstenmehl, also known as barley flour, is a versatile ingredient that adds a nutty and slightly sweet flavor to baked goods. It is made by grinding whole barley grains into a fine powder, which retains much of the bran and germ. As a result, gerstenmehl is a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins. It can be used as a substitute for wheat flour in bread, pancakes, and other baked goods, and is especially popular in German and Scandinavian cuisine. With its distinct flavor and health benefits, gerstenmehl is a great choice for those looking to add variety to their baking.
