hello there!

i used to buy "harina integral" from el nacional in the city and even in san pedro de macoris, it was from Gold Medal -brand- but now i went to most of nacionals in the east, i even went to iberia where they sell the Gold Medal lot but they do not have the whole wheat lot, do you know where i can find this type of wheat? i dont mind the brand at all.
i live in Juan dolio, any place in sto dgo, spm or romana will be fine! please help!!

I am also looking for that. Here in La Vega, La Sirena used to stock that. But do not see that nowadays.

It may be you can find a farmer in the hills and grind it yourself - i have seen wholegrain wheat here in LT.
When you buy it there is some chaf - for small quantities you need a pestle and mortar for large quantities
a ball grinder - use river stones.

When I re-appropriated wheat as a child I used these methods.

Stone ground whole wheat flour - great.

Here is a link to the annual wheat production of the DR.

Dominican Republic Wheat Production by Year (1000 MT)

:cool:

It is exactly what I thought it would be.

We are in need of Trigo. I saw the Cafe Monte Alto in Vega Real. But that supermarket is specific to La vega.
I haven't seen Gold Medal in a while, but there are other brands of Integral avena available in La Sirena, National, and Jumbo here in the city.

I'm still waiting for Cafe Monte Alto to show up again........

whole wheat flour

Carrefour in SD has bio (organic) whole wheat flour from France. It is in the bio section next to the frozen food.
