Chris Gillard, Exeter Hub Area Commercial Manager says… “As an ex-chef I always look for the best ingredients to work with, for me pork has taken a back seat over the years on most menus as it lacks the flavor and any character like beef and lamb does. However, with the extra lengths Dingley Dell have gone to raise the fat concentration of their pork, it brings pork to new heights. I’ve always said, “put amazing produce in the hands of great chefs and then you see and taste the magic”. Dingley Dell Pork will be a huge success for Classic Fine Foods I’m sure of it.”

Attentive to the expectations and needs of its artisan baker customers, Minoterie Girardeau is always ready to share its passion for exceptional products. The flours on offer are made from 100% French wheat grown in a sustainable manner, close to home, in the Maine et Loire and Vendée regions. From the field to the bag of flour, they guarantee the traceability of their wheat and support their farmers over the long term.
The flour stocked by Classic Fine Foods Vietnam are:
T65 Label Rouge Emilie Baguette Tradition Flour – It is particularly appreciated by artisan bakers: it allows them to offer their customers the famous “Baguette de Tradition Française”. The traditional baguette goes perfectly with cheeses like brie, seasonal jam, dishes with sauces, raw ham, raw vegetables, etc.
T45 Fine D’Exception Flour – This pure, top-of-the-range flour is extracted from the wheat kernel and ground on cylinders. Designed specifically for pastries, this highly refined specialty flour can be used to make all kinds of products: croissants, pains au chocolat, brioches, praline brioches, chocolate brioches and so on. It can also be used for sandwich loaves and burger buns.
T80 Wheat Bise Stoneground Flour – The selected cereals are ground slowly, to preserve the natural elements and aromas of the grain. Grinding with a grinding wheel combined with mechanical transport makes it possible to release and preserve the mineral, protein and vitamin fractions on the periphery of the grain and a large part of the wheat germ.
T150 Complete M Flour – T150 is milled from the whole grain, producing a smooth, silky flour containing finer bran particles. This one is a great choice for sourdough baking – allowing the grassy, aromatic grassy flavors of the flour to be balanced by the acidity of the sourdough. It is a very reactive flour, full of enzymes, and makes a loaf with a good crumb.
T170 Rye Flour – There are several aims behind the processing of organic rye flours, including preserving the nutritional qualities of the raw materials as far as possible. The grains can be crushed on natural flint millstones or roller mills. Often used in organic farming, the stone-milling process allows the germ and more of the husk, which is rich in fiber and minerals, to be incorporated into the flour. Excellent for rye bread, pumpernickel, crackers etc.
T55 Special Croissant Flour – T55 is milled in France exclusively with a blend of strong wheats and has ideal characteristics to make perfect croissants, pain au chocolat, brioches and bread for toasting. Croissants will have layers and volume, brioches will be tender and generous, and toast will melt on in the mouth. It is a highly consistent flour for reliable baking.
