Sorghum Flour

Sorghum Flour

Sorghum flour is made from ground dried sorghum grains (Sorghum bicolor), a naturally gluten-free grain that is commonly used in gluten-free cooking and baking. Sorghum has been a staple food in many cultures for centuries and is gaining popularity as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour. Sorghum flour has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a fine texture, making it suitable for a variety of applications, including baking, thickening sauces, and as a base for gluten-free pasta. It is also a nutritious option that is rich in fiber, protein, and essential vitamins and minerals.
