Baker's Flour
« on: December 22, 2010, 06:03:03 pm »
I was hoping someone would tell me what kind of flour "Baker's Flour" is.  I'm from Canada, and our white flour is hard white flour, soft white flour, hard unbleached white flour, soft unbleached flour, all purpose flour, self-rising flour--so which should I use for Baker's flour, please let me know.  Marnie

For a simple answer use the 'hard'flour.

I think some countries call it high gluten flour. It is basically whatever you would choose if making breads, pizza, cakes, biscuits etc and you want a good quality result.

Thanks for the info, I will try the unbleached hard bread flour, and see how it works, as that is what I use to make bread.  Marnie

I was wondering the same thing, so I just used bread flour. It worked great!
