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.
What plant part does the wheat grain come from?
Bread can be made from many grains, including: wheat, oat, rye, corn, and barley.
What alternative flours can replace white and wheat 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.
How do you change rice flour to baking all purpose?
All-purpose flour is made from a blend of high-gluten hard wheat and low-gluten soft wheat. It's a fine-textured flour milled from the inner part of the wheat kernel and contains neither the germ (the sprouting part) nor the bran (the outer coating). Cake or pastry flour is a fine-textured, soft-wheat flour with a high starch content. It makes particularly tender cakes and pastries.
What is the difference between self raising flour and wholemeal self raising flour?
I'm assuming you mean whole grain wheat. Whole grain wheat includes the bran, the germ, as well as the "flour" part of the berry. It is much more nutritious.Self-rising flour is make from white flour, which is wheat that has had the bran and germ removed. This pretty much leaves dead cellulose, which they then add some chemical vitamins to, and call it "enriched". Then they add some baking powder (often-times, with aluminum in it) and call it "self-rising" flour.Better to add your own non-aluminum baking powder to your flour.

How do you make all purpose flour?
All-purpose flour is ground to a specific coarseness between the finer cake flour and the coarser bread flour. It is made from the bulghur of the wheat berry. Wheat grains are made up of 3 parts. The Germ, or small nut at the base from which the grass is germinated and begins to grow. The bulghur, the meaty larger part of the grain full of protein and carbohydrates to feed the germinated grass. And the bran or aril, the papery fibrous outer covering of the seed which protects it until it grows. Whole wheat flour uses the whole seed, white flours only the bulghur.
Is bran part of a wheat plant?
wheat BranBran is about 14 1/2 percent of the kernel weight. Bran is included in whole wheat flour and can also be bought separately. The bran contains dietary fiber, a small amount of protein, significant quantities of vitamin E, B-vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytochemicals
Is pastry flour the same as cake flour?
Pastry flour is a "weak" flour, meaning it has low-gluten content, while regular flour is "stronger", meaning it has a higher gluten level. Higher gluten makes a chewier item, like bread and buns. Lower gluten makes a more delicate item, like pastries and cakes.
