Question
Is flour that is labeled “dry grinding” considered chametz for Pesach, or is it not chametz because it was ground without water? And if it was indeed ground without water, is there a need to be particular to buy specifically flour that was ground after Pesach, or is there no concern of chametz that remained in a Jew’s possession over Pesach?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
Flour that was ground by “dry grinding” is not actual chametz.
However, it is not kosher for Pesach, because the machinery and the mill were not checked before grinding to ensure there was no mixture of chametz particles.
Therefore, with regard to after Pesach, there is no concern about it.
