Its strong gluten development makes it ideal for bread baking, while its subtle sweet flavor makes it a favorite for cookies, pastries and more.
Flavor Profile: mild, creamy, buttery, smooth
Uses: artisan and pan breads, cookies, biscuits, rustic pastries, pizza
Performance notes: Similar to store-bought all-purpose flour
Recommended Hydration Percentage: 63-68%
