"May Contain" statement NEW FOR 2025 (Progressive rollout):

  • In 2025 we will be progressively updating our labels and product pictures with our new label that now include a "May Contain" statement.
  • The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) dictates that "Cross-contamination statements may be declared by food manufacturers and importers".
  • That said, we hold ourselves to much higher standards than the CFIA and Health Canada rules oblige. Most companies do not and you will only rarely see "May Contain" statements.
  • If there is a remote chance that there might be cross-contamination of a priority allergen, we will declare it on the product label in the form of a "May Contain" statement.
  • A "May Contain" statement does not mean that the allergen is present in the product, it is simple a precautionary measure we take to stay the most transparent possible.
  • If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
  • For example our Quebec made flours come from a mill that makes both oat and wheat flours. Since both allergens are present in the mill we automatically declare the possibility of cross-contamination even if all precautionary measures are taken.
  • Only priority allergens are declared in the "May Contain" statement, which are:
    • Cereals & Grains: Triticale, Barley, Oats, Rye, Wheat.
    • Tree Nuts: Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Cashews, Hazelnuts, Macadamia Nuts, Pecans, Pine Nuts, Pistachios, Walnuts.
    • Peanuts
    • Sesame
    • Eggs
    • Milk
    • Soy
    • Mustard
    • Fish
    • Seafood: Crustaceans, Molluscs.
    • Sulphites
  • Priority allergens are decided by government agencies and health boards. To read more on the subject see "Common food allergens - Priority allergens" published by the CFIA.
  • Full CFIA cross-contamination statement explanation "Food allergen cross-contamination (or precautionary) statements".

PRODUCT OF CANADA

A local product that supports Canadian farmers, artisans and businesses, and reduces the pollution associated with long-distance transport.

Our organic whole rye flour is made by "La Milanaise" in Quebec from organic whole rye. Rye is often considered a superior grain to wheat or barley in terms of weight loss efforts. The type of fiber in rye is somewhat unique as it is extremely binding with water molecules, meaning that it makes you feel full very quickly. The problem with being on a diet is that you are often hungry, so you inevitably give in. However, by removing the feeling of hunger and creating some sense of satiety, the type of fiber found in it can keep you from snacking in between meals or overeating, which are two surefire ways to mess up your weight loss program!

Whole rye flour is made from whole grain rye and thus retains the nutrients found in whole grains. Whole grains have the 3 parts of the grain; The bran, endosperm and germ.

Whole grain flour health benefits come mainly from its high-fiber content. High-fiber grains help you with digestion, gut health, and weight management. The FDA even affirms that high-fiber, low-fat diets help reduce the risk of cancer and prevent coronary heart disease.

This organic flour can be used to make: breads, cakes, cookies, muffins, pancakes, pie crusts and waffles.

 

What are the different Rye Flours?

  • White rye flour, as the name implies, is the lightest version of rye flour. It's also sometimes referred to as "light rye." In white rye flour, the bran and germ are completely removed, and the flour contains only the starchy endosperm of the rye kernel.
  • Medium rye flour contains more of the bran than white rye, leading to a darker color and more robust rye flavor. At the same time, it's not weighed down by the germ or too much bran like darker rye flours, so it can still be used in delicate doughs or tender tarts.
  • Dark rye flour can differ among producers. Usually, it's milled from the entire rye kernel with all of the bran, germ, and endosperm making it a whole grain rye flour. However, some dark rye flours have parts of the bran sifted out or contain little of the endosperm. Without a standard classification, different options can vary, making it difficult to pinpoint exactly what you're getting.
  • Our organic whole rye flour is classified as a dark rye flour and contains all of the bran and endosperm.

 

What is "La Milanaise"?

  • Founded in 1977 in Milan, Quebec (Eastern Townships) by Robert and Lily Beauchemin it began as an organic farming venture. In 1982 they started expanding their stone-milled organic flour products by building their first dedicated milling building on the farm and never stopped expanding.
  • With their latest factory built in 2016 in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec (Montérégie) "La Milanaise" now has a 350 ton per day capacity, becoming the biggest organic milling company in the province.

General Storage Tips:

• Nothing beats vacuum sealing for freshness.
• Store below 15°C and < 65% humidity.
• Store in the dark as light degrades flavors.
• Mason jars make great storage containers.
• Can be frozen to prolong shelf life.
