Flour From the Tree of Life
The mesquite tree has long been treasured by desert peoples for its nutrition and health benefits. The Pima people of the Southwest refer to it as the "tree of life," while the Bishnoi of North India consider it holy. The seeds and pods, traditionally ground into flour by mortar and pestle, offer a full gram of protein per tablespoon. Its glycemic index is only 25 despite its natural sweetness, supporting healthy blood sugar levels.
The Zint Difference
Our USDA-organic mesquite flour is made from mesquite trees grown on the northern coast of Peru. After being washed and dehydrated, the organic mesquite beans and pods are milled to a smooth, fine powder for easy consumption. The flavor of our mesquite flour is complex and delicious, with a sweet, smoky taste and hints of caramel and maple.
Usage
Our raw mesquite powder can be added to recipes as a gluten-free flour substitute, mixed into smoothies, or sprinkled over your favorite desserts for added sweetness and complexity.
