UNDERSTANDING ORGANIC PRODUCTS Organic Products are becoming popular now that we are aware of the insecticides used in food production. Organic products as well as many of our Australian products are produced without insecticides so it naturally contains the eggs of the field moth that lay their eggs in the flowers of the plant. Non-organic products use chemicals to sterilize the flour and this kills the eggs that hatch into larvae and then into tiny flour moths. These grubs are not maggots from blowflies. Field moths invade almost all grains and plants with the exception of chick peas that have their own protection in the plant. The larvae are not harmful although their presence is unpleasant. Flour or products that has hatched insects can still be used if it is sifted and then either heat treated in the oven at 180C for 10 minutes and left to cool in the oven that has been turned off. An alternative method of sterilization is the freezing of the flour for 48 hours after sifting to remove any insects. It is recommended that you store organic and preservative free flour in refrigeration in humid weather. Once you have sterilized your product Bay leaves will discourage further infestation. The treatment of organic flour is time consuming and hence adds to the expense of the flour, many retailers will not stock organic products because of this problem. We do try to watch for signs of infestation but the insects often do not hatch until the temperature is perfect for them. We do try to freeze all our organic flour to prevent the problem, however sometimes batches are missed with a large turnover of products.

Tapioca starch and tapioca flour are the same thing. I have found that Asian type markets and products tend to label it as tapioca starch and companies like Bob’s Red Mill tend to label it as tapioca flour. , but there is no difference in the actual products. They are the same. When it comes to recipes it really varies by the author or cookbook on what it is called, but if a recipe calls for tapioca starch, you can easily use tapioca flour, since they are the same thing. Tapioca flour comes from the root of the cassava plant. 1kg or 5kg pack options

Terry and Nicky arrived in Tasmania after making a sea-change from Sydney. Giving up their secure jobs was made easier by their purchase of a small cottage on 3 acres in the idyllic Huon Valley in the state’s south, famed for fruit production.
Being foodies, it was while having friends over for a visit from Sydney, that they decided to prepare a paella, and found it difficult to source saffron locally. Eventually they tracked down a small 150mg jar for $14.95 and were stunned at just how prized the spice was.
Curiosity prevailed and the couple found that Tasmania had ideal conditions for growing saffron, and that the vast majority of saffron sold in Australia was imported.
Terry and Nicky sensed the opportunity of replacing imported produce with home grown saffron. This led to a fantastic love affair with the tiny red threads that has spanned almost three decades. Recovering from once in a century flooding which almost wiped out their entire crop in only their third year, Tas-Saff have risen to become the most successful saffron producers in Australia
