All Purpose Flour 5lbs.
All Purpose Flour 5lbs.
All-purpose flour is milled from a blend of hard and soft wheat, which puts its protein content between a bread flour and a pastry flour.
That middle position is what makes it the workhorse of most kitchens. It develops enough gluten to give cookies, muffins, quick breads, and pie crusts structure, without the strength that would make them tough. Our all-purpose flour is available in bulk or wholesale.
Product Characteristics or Behavior
All-purpose flour is milled from a blend of hard and soft wheat, giving it a mid-range protein content that sits between bread flour and pastry flour.
All-purpose flour is available bleached, which creates a softer texture, as well as unbleached, which provides more structure to baked goods.
Culinary Uses
All-purpose flour handles cookies, muffins, quick breads, pancakes, biscuits, pie crusts, and cakes, and it works in yeast breads where a softer crumb is wanted. For chewy artisan loaves and pizza, a higher protein bread flour gives more rise and chew; for delicate cakes and tender pastry, a low protein cake or pastry flour is the better choice.
