The Origin of Flour

At JJ ORTEGA DERIVADOS S.L., we have been writing the history of the perfect frying for nearly half a century: since 1975, we have innovated with the first flour designed to fry fish, and thanks to our experience, we have refined the granularity and the original formulation to achieve a batter that is always golden, light, and extraordinarily crispy. With the same artisanal vocation, we have created a gluten-free line —processed in completely independent facilities— that preserves the flavor and texture that made us famous, without the risk of cross-contamination. Each sack undergoes rigorous quality controls: we analyze oil absorption capacity, grain uniformity, and heat resistance to ensure optimal performance in every fry. Additionally, our family of products includes strong baker’s flours and chickpea flours, all 100% natural and free of additives, designed to offer you at home the versatility and finish of an authentic professional bakery.


We are the origin of a tradition that has evolved to meet the most current demands: five decades ago at JJ ORTEGA DERIVADOS S.L., we launched the first flour for frying fish, initiating a gastronomic culture that we continue to nurture today with traditional milling methods and state-of-the-art technological controls. Upon detecting the growth of the gluten-free diet, we formulated certified blends milled on separate lines, capable of reproducing the lightness and characteristic crunch of our pescaíto, without sacrificing food safety. We meticulously select each grain, adjust the granularity in each batch, and evaluate each lot through frying tests and laboratory analyses, ensuring a homogeneous texture and authentic flavor. Our range spans from classic frying flour to strong baker’s flour and chickpea flour, all natural, without preservatives or additives, so your recipes always reach the level of a professional bakery, both in frying and in breads and pastries.
