Szymanowska Uniwersalna

Polskie Młyny

Poland's first packaged type 480 all-purpose flour, from Polskie Mlyny's Szymanowska line with 120+ years of milling tradition. Surprisingly high 12% protein for its type makes it genuinely universal - handles everything from pierogi to pizza to bread. The lower type number (480 vs 500/550) means finer milling and lighter color while maintaining good gluten structure.
