Product overview – Petra 0106 Agricola flour
The Petra 0106 Agricola High Performance flour is designed to bring the essence of traditional countryside baking into your kitchen. Packaged in a 2.5kg bag, this flour is not a simple white type but rather a blend of cereals, whole grains, and seeds, delivering robust flavor and a darker, rustic appearance.
Unlike standard flours, Petra 0106 carries the HP (High Performance) seal. This mark indicates superior stability and strength, ensuring consistent results even with long fermentations or demanding recipes. The extra resilience makes it suitable for both professional bakers and home enthusiasts looking for reliable dough performance.
Why choose Petra 0106 Agricola High Performance flour
Choosing this flour means enjoying more than just structure. It offers fiber richness, higher protein content, and a nutty aroma that sets it apart from generic blends. Named Agricola—“farmer’s flour”—it reflects its origins as a product inspired by rural Italian baking traditions. It is crafted to highlight the natural character of whole grains and seeds, bringing depth and authenticity to your recipes.
The flour’s balanced protein structure provides excellent hydration, resulting in elastic doughs that retain air. This leads to breads with open crumb, pizzas with flavorful crust, and pastries with a hearty, rustic finish.
Perfect for pizza and bread
For pizza, Petra Agricola works wonderfully as a base flour or in blends. On its own, it creates a thicker, earthy crust with deep golden color. Combined with a type 0 or 00 flour, it offers balance—maintaining elasticity while enhancing flavor.
Try this quick recipe: mix 500g Petra Agricola with 300ml water, 10g salt, and 3g dry yeast. Rest the dough overnight in the fridge, then bake as a country-style pizza topped with mozzarella, mushrooms, and herbs. The result is a crust full of aroma, texture, and authenticity.
Beyond pizza, this flour is perfect for rustic breads, focaccia, crackers, and even sweet bakes like spiced loaves. Its versatility, combined with the High Performance reliability, makes it a must-have for anyone who values flavor and consistency.
