Where do i store baking flour?

Answer 1

Flour should be kept tightly covered in a dry place such as a cupboard. Keeping it on the counter is ok as long as it's in a covered container. In some parts of the country people have trouble with pest infestation so it's usually recommended that they keep flour, tightly covered, in the refrigerator. That would probably apply even more if flour isn't used frequently.

Answer 2

• Flour can be stored in its original packaging or in an air tight container on a shelf or in a cupboard in a cool part of your kitchen.
• Never mix old flour with new flour.
• Wholemeal flour keeps less well than white flour as the oils from the germ and bran can become rancid with age. Wholemeal flour will normally keep for about three months while white flour will be OK to use for six to nine months.
