Flow matching models learn to transport samples from a simple prior distribution to a complex data distribution. When prior-data pairs are coupled via optimal transport (OT), the learned trajectories are straight and non-crossing, enabling fast, even single-step, generation. However, computing the OT coupling in high dimensions is intractable, and existing methods attempt to solve the OT problem, at the cost of persistent bias or significant overhead. Rather than solving for the OT coupling, we reformulate the problem. Once the prior is treated as a design choice rather than a fixed input, the OT coupling between prior and data is no longer unique. Many priors admit an OT-optimal identity coupling to the data, leaving us free to choose one that is also tractable to sample. We identify low-frequency projection of natural images as such a choice. The identity coupling between data and its low-frequency representation is empirically OT-optimal, the prior is structured enough to be sampled by a lightweight model at inference, and the remaining flow-matching task reduces to synthesizing high-frequency detail. Interpolating the prior with Gaussian noise further improves generation quality while preserving the OT coupling. The approach requires no modifications to the flow model itself, and integrates naturally with latent-space models, classifier-free guidance, and one-step generation frameworks. Across all benchmarks, our method reduces trajectory curvature by more than $2\times$ compared to existing flow matching methods, yielding better generation quality in the few-step regime.
