Antimo Caputo "00" Chefs Flour 1 Kilo, 2.2 Pound (Pack of 4)

Excellent product for making homemade pizza dough! The "00" flour is the best for pizza and calzone doughs. The 4 individual packages make it easy to store, have always arrived fresh and a good value for the price.

The only flour I will use! it is perfect for all of my baking and cooking needs.

I was diagnosed with a gluten intolerance in 2013 and have been gluten free ever since. I was super strict about it too because of the amount of inflammation it caused in my body after eating gluten. A colleague from Italy convinced me to try this flour and went into the reasons why Italian flour was safe to try despite my intolerance (see side bar below). I was super leery and honestly VERY scared to try it. But I bit the bullet, ordered this flour, and tried it. I first made chocolate chip cookies. I ate a little bit of the raw dough and then waited a few hours. No reaction. Then I ate 1 cookie and waited a few hours. No reaction. The next day still no reaction so I ate 3 cookies - still no reaction. AMAZING, right?! Next, I made bread with this flour. Ate one piece with butter and honey (heavenly, especially after 12 years of eating gluten free breads). No problems. I waited a couple days just to make sure and still no problems! IF YOU ARE GLUTEN INTOLERANT IN THE UNITED STATES TRY THIS FLOUR!!! After 12 years of gluten intolerance I'm finally able to bake and eat what my family eats. I was in tears when I realized that I could eat "normally" again as long as I used Italian flour with 100% wheat as it's only ingredient. Antimo Caputo is pricey compared to US brands but it's not slowly killing me so to me it's worth it! It bakes easily and my husband says there is a taste difference. He says that baked goods make with this flour taste better in general than when I would make it with US flour. [SIDE BAR on FLOUR in the US: American flour is so heavily processed that it strips the flour of it's natural vitamins so flour manufacturers in the US are required by law to put them back in - artificially. The processing, bleaching, and artificial additives are what causes the gluten intolerance in people. Disgusting, right?!]

Finally the perfect flour to make restaurant quality pizza at home. This flour makes a smooth elastic dough that bakes into the perfect textured pizza crust-- crunchy on the outside and light on the inside. If you have tried (like I have) making pizza with all purpose flour and met with disappointment--it's not you, it's the flour. All purpose flour doesn't offer that tug when you bite into it. This flour gives you the full restaurant pizza experience. I combined this flour with professional bakers yeast and wow, delicious home made pizza. I also like that I can control how much salt, oil and sugar, etc. Oh, and no more abandoned pizza crusts! All four bags of flour arrived in tact, no spills in the shipping box. I think it will also make wonderful dinner rolls, cinnamon buns and hot pretzels. I highly recommend this flour for baking, and hope this review is helpful. Next time I buy this flour I will get the 50 lb bag. I have so much baking to do!!

Great product. Only use this product line in everything we make

I started buying this flour when my severly gluten intolerant friend told me she ate something made with it and felt no distress. I like to bake for her so this makes life a lot better. Why not use good European flour to make my baked goods more digestible? Now, I use it for everything except for one thing-- my homemade flour tortillas. I found that they weren't soft and pliable using this flour and they turned cracker-like. I keep organic flour around for those but everything else - pizza dough, bread and baked goods-- is made with this flour. It's worth the price.

Great flour. It doesn't trigger issues.

This is by far the best flour I’ve ever used!!!! It’s amazing all of my pastries and goodies come out so light & fluffy. I’m truly impressed

We use this for homeade pizza, it is such an easy recipe and the dough turns out perfect every time!

I bought this to see if Italian wheat would be easier on my stomach than the Canadian wheat I grew up with. I won’t go so far as to say I’m gluten intolerant, but I definitely get a heavy gut ache after eating breads or pasta. I did find my stomach is much more tolerant of this product, and it definitely makes a beautiful crusty baguette or pizza base. It does have a much milder taste than Canadian wheat, but getting used to the flavour difference is an easy task when you don’t end up with a stomach ache after eating it. I sure wish this product could be purchased in larger bags to make it more economical for the average consumer on a budget.

This Italian flour is amazing. I’m done the with the local stuff.

This item arrived to my house when I opened the box flower was all over the place two out of the four bags were open and not sealed absolutely unacceptable

The flour its self is awesome. What a difference it makes in for fresh bread. But I recently bought a 4 pack and because they were not individually wrapped and the box was not handled properly during shipping one of the bags busted opened and I lost about a quarter of the bag. Normally that wouldnt be that big of a deal BUT this flour is really expensive. In the future I hope they wrap the bags better for delivery.
