As mineral mostly is on the outside of the kernel, the higher the ash content , the more bran and outer layers youll get.Lower protein content is great fro making cookies and pies, and short pastries : THAT crumbly texture. Higher protein content = higher gluten in the dough, is great for baking bread , or even pizza : THAT chewy texture************************ LOVE & SUPPORT ************************Support my work on : https://www.patreon.com/frenchguycooking--Patreon is a cool way for creators to achieve a sustainable income by being financially supported by their lovely community !
