not same
There is no difference between "flour for making bread" and "flour to make bread." Both phrases refer to the same thing: bread flour.
Bread wholemeal flour probably has yeast in it.
To make banana bread using bread flour instead of all-purpose flour, use the same ingredients as a traditional banana bread recipe but substitute the all-purpose flour with bread flour. The bread flour will give the banana bread a chewier texture and slightly denser crumb. Be sure to mix the ingredients thoroughly and bake at the same temperature and time as the original recipe.
Yes. Wheat flour is the same as Plain Flour. Unless recipe calls for whole-wheat flour, that would mean wholemeal flour.
Yes, bread flour in many cases has a slightly higher gluten content, but that does not effect the taste or its usability as a thickening agent.
No. Italian bread is made from the same ingredients as other breads: flour, water. yeast, oil and sugar.
Canadian bread flour typically has a higher protein content, often around 13-15%, which contributes to stronger gluten development, making it ideal for chewy breads like bagels and artisanal loaves. In contrast, UK strong bread flour usually has a protein content of around 11-13%, which is suitable for a variety of bread types but may not achieve the same level of chewiness as Canadian flour. Additionally, Canadian flour may be milled from different wheat varieties, influencing its baking properties and flavor.
It comes from the same bakery your regular white bread comes from. The bakery just uses whole grains and whole wheat flour instead of bleached milled white flour.
The flour is the same amount. The adjustment is in the leavening agent. In most things, you should be able to leave it out if you use self rising. If you look at most recipes, it takes 1 teaspoon of baking powder to 1 cup of flour. This varies somewhat, but it should get you close.
All-purpose flour is the same thing as plain flour. The terms are simply different for different parts of the world. In Australia and the United Kingdom, it is known as plain flour while in the United States and Canada it is known as All-Purpose Flour. This type of flour has a lower amount of gluten protein than bread flour, but more than baking flour so it is balanced and can be used for a wide range of purposes.
Yes. All-purpose flour and unbleached flour are usually the same thing. Just be sure that the package doesn't say something like 'self rising', 'bread flour', or 'cake flour' - those ARE NOT all-purpose flour.
Yes. Pretty much. The difference in the two flours is the ability to form gluten. Bread flour is ground from a different variety of wheat, and produces more gluten when kneaded and so is of greater value when making bread. As you do not knead cookie dough, it doesn't come into play, and for the the most part cookie recipes are not that critical. Do not use bread flour for making cakes when cake flour is called for. Cakes are different animals altogether and proper ingredients are critical, and you cannot substitute a hard wheat flour for the soft cake flour, (which produces almost no gluten.)
