About the Brand
Bob Moore's secret to life may just be "work hard and keep it simple." Living this philosophy, Bob literally puts his nose to the grindstone every day. Bob's Red Mill Natural Foods is an Oregon-based company that utilizes simple, old-world technology to mill hundreds of all-natural whole grain products.

Bob's Red Mill is dedicated to the manufacturing of natural foods in the natural way. In their own words: "With all the sophisticated knowledge of recent times, no machinery has yet been developed that grinds grains into flour quite as well as our flint-hard quartz millstones quarried in France and used by discriminating millers since early Roman times."

"Our well-dressed (sharpened) sets of millstones turn the highest quality wheat into a finer, better baking bread flour than all the hammer mills, steel roller mills, steel buhr mills, or pulverizers ever built! These slow turning millstones grind the bran, endosperm, and germ (containing its nutritious wheat germ oil) into flour in a cool natural way, creating a more assimilable food."

Bob's Red Mill stone grinds all common and most uncommon grains into flours and meals on its over 100-year-old mills. They mix them into an astounding array of unique cereals, pancake and waffle mixes, machine and hand-made bread mixes, quick bread mixes, gluten-free mixes, and specialty grain products.

Customer Reviews

Convenient item used in torte recipes
Many European tortes and cookies use ground hazelnuts as the major ingredient, replacing flour. Some examples are Christmas star cookies from Germany which are small iced nut cakes that have a baked-on icing (Zimtsterne.) Tortes frequently use hazelnut flour as the main ingredient. Rather than having to rub off the skins and grind your own, you can buy Bob's Red Mill hazelnut meal instead. Keep it in the freezer or fridge as it can go rancid if you don't use it all up.

ZIMTSTERNE (Cinnamon Stars)

1 1/2 cups (about 8 ounces) hazelnuts or blanched almonds, finely ground
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 cup egg whites (about 2 large)
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
About 1/2 cup additional confectioners' sugar for rolling


1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

2. Combine the nuts, cinnamon, and zest. Beat the egg whites on low speed until foamy, about 30 seconds. Add the salt, increase the speed to medium-high, and beat until soft peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and beat until stiff and glossy, 5 to 8 minutes. Reserve one-third of the meringue (about 1/3 cup) and fold the nut mixture into the remaining meringue.

3. Place a large piece of waxed paper on a flat surface and sprinkle with additional confectioners' sugar. Place the nut mixture on the sugar, lightly sprinkle with more confectioners' sugar, top with a second piece of waxed paper, and roll out 1/4 inch thick. Remove the top piece of waxed paper. Using a cookie cutter dipped in water, cut into 2-inch star shapes or use a sharp knife to cut into diamonds. Reroll and cut any scraps. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Spread the reserved meringue over the top of the cookies and bake until the tops are lightly colored, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool. These cookies set up and dry out over 1 day, so let them alone overnight AT LEAST and keep in a tin to store. If they last...which in our house they don't. They are horribly addictive.

Approximately 3 dozen cookies.

Great flour for low carb baking
I have been using Bob's Red Mill All-Natural Nut Flours for several years to bake low-carb breads and baked goods. I also use the Hazelnut flour to bread chicken, in lieu of flour. The product is always great tasting and easy to work with.

Excellent baking product
I am from Italy, where hazelnuts are the most common type of nut. I love baking but could not reproduce some recipies without this ingredient. Hazelnut flour is perfect for me: it takes away the hassle of having to grind the nuts!
