Meyerhans, a Swiss miller since 1894
Meyerhans Muhlen is a Swiss milling group founded in 1894 and based in Weinfelden (Thurgau), one of Switzerland's leading flour producers. Its Vesuvio (Pizzamehl u'Vesuvio) is milled in Switzerland and formulated specifically for pizza, combining the convenience of a local supply chain with a flour built for Neapolitan-style dough.
Vesuvio: a flour for pizza
Vesuvio is a type 00 pizza flour designed for the elastic, extensible dough of Neapolitan and contemporary pizza. Classified class A, it provides good strength and tolerance, opening cleanly into a base and developing a soft, airy cornicione in a hot oven. It is versatile enough for bread and fresh pasta when a single pizza flour is preferred in the kitchen.
How to use it
Use for direct or pre-fermented doughs with medium to long leavening, at a hydration suited to your oven and style (typically around 60 to 70%). Bake at high temperature in wood-fired or electric pizza ovens. Adjust hydration and leavening time to your recipe; the elastic gluten makes the dough easy to shape by hand.
