According to the food storage experts at provident living dot com, properly stored wheat can last for 30+ years.Last week Iopened a sealed barrel of wheat my grandfather bought in the 1940s. It looked and smelled as fresh as a new bag from the market. I ground it into flour and baked it into bread and it tasted FANTASTIC!
Unmilled whole wheat berries (not ground) can be stored indefinitely, when stored in airtight containers. Once the grain is milled, it immediately begins to oxidize (the wheat germ and wheat germ oil) and within 72 hours, 90% of its nutrients will be gone.
wow that is the worst question every body knows you put it in a freezer.
Usually flour does contain wheat.
duritos de harina [wheat flour snacks] are made from wheat and flour
Yes. But you must remove 2 TBSP from each cup called for in the recipe. Also, since wheat flour is much heavier than all purpose flour, be sure to sift it before measuring. If you don't have a sifter, just fluff the flour well with a fork before scooping. Hope this helps!
Yes. Wheat flour is the same as Plain Flour. Unless recipe calls for whole-wheat flour, that would mean wholemeal flour.
Different flours can be used interchangeably, although they will not produce identical products. White flour is a type of wheat flour that has all elements of the wheat grain removed except for the starchy inner part of the grain. It is usually chemically bleached to the preferred whiteness. Other types of wheat flour include unbleached white flour, whole wheat flour and cracked wheat flour. Bread flour is wheat flour with a higher percentage of gluten, while pastry flour is wheat flour with lower gluten. Self-rising flour is wheat flour to which salt and leavening ingredients are added. Some flours that can replace wheat flours are spelt flour, oat flour, rye flour, rice flour and corn flour. Each type of flour will have a distinctive taste and texture.
No. Rice flour is made from rice. Plain flour is refined wheat flour. Self rising flour is refined wheat flour with baking powder and salt already in it. Wheat flour has gluten, rice flour does not and cannot be used to substitute for wheat flour.
no, wheat bran is an additive that can be ADDED to products as where wheat flour IS the product
That is grain, which includes such crops as wheat, barley, rye, oats, rice, etc.
Whole wheat flour is just that, wheat that is ground into flour with nothing removed. White flour is just the middle part of the wheat kernel without the bran or wheat germ. Enriched flour has vitamins added to it to make up for the bran and wheat germ. Refined could mean any of these other than whole wheat.
The recipe for whole wheat bread requires 3 cups of bread flour, and 1 cup of whole wheat flour, making the ratio of whole wheat flour to total flour used to be 1:4.

There are no grains of flour in a wheat seed. Wheat must be milled (ground) to produce flour.
