Enriched wheat flour is white flour (or refined flour) with the following nutrients added back: folic acid, thiamin, riboflavin, and iron.

Whole wheat flour doesn't need to be enriched because it has all the vitamins in it already. A wheat kernal is made of three parts: the bran, germ, and endosperm. To make white flour, the bran and germ are removed. Since many vitamins and minerals are found in the bran and germ, white flour has a smaller amount of these nutrients. Enrichment is done to put back some of the vitamins and minerals that were lost.

Anything made with flour like bread, cakes, donuts, noodles and pasta. But flour may be made from other grains or even vegetables. Also, most beers and some whiskeys are made from fermented wheat.

Old fashioned wallpaper paste, but today most is probably made with synthetics.

Bread, flour, pasta. Anything that has flour in it (non-gluten free) will contain wheat as flour is made with wheat.

What is the difference between wheat flour and white flour What does it mean for flour to be enriched What does it mean for a flour to be refined?

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.

There is no yeast at all in enriched flour.
