stone ground
Old-fashioned flour processing
Stone ground describes grain that has been crushed between traditional millstones rather than modern steel rollers.
The slower process generates less heat, preserving more nutrients and flavor: stone ground flour, stone ground cornmeal.
The term appears frequently on food packaging to suggest artisanal quality or traditional methods.
