Production & Sourcing
Unlike traditional cassava flour, the roots are thoroughly washed but not peeled, allowing the nutritious skin to be included. The organic cassava roots are then finely ground, incorporating both the pulp and the skin.
This mixture undergoes a drying process to remove moisture while retaining the valuable nutrients. Finally, the dried mixture is milled to achieve the desired coarser texture, resulting in Organic Unpeeled Cassava Flour.
