The invention relates to a method for producing flour from rye grains and/or wheat grains, in which undesired components in the flour are stripped by means of husking and grinding. Said method comprises the following successive steps: a) the rye grains and/or wheat grains are husked until the grains used are peeled down to a range of 7.5 to 11.5 percent by weight; b) the peeled parts are eliminated; c) the remaining grains are ground so as to obtain flour which contains flour particles having different sizes; d) a coarse flour fraction that comprises flour particles having a minimum size of 1,000 µm is eliminated from the flour; and e) the remaining flour fraction is removed for further use. Also disclosed is the use of the produced flour.
