yes you can
Any wheat flour should work. If you use all whole- wheat flour, you will end up with a heavier bread which is also a bit more crumbly. Other flours such as rice flour don't contain gluten, which is what allows bread to rise and have the texture it does. The gluten forms strands trap air and cause the bread to rise.
Yes, but not very well. Wheat flour is unique in that it contains proteins which trap air very well. This is why bread can rise.
Usually flour does contain wheat.
duritos de harina [wheat flour snacks] are made from wheat and flour
Yes. Wheat flour is the same as Plain Flour. Unless recipe calls for whole-wheat flour, that would mean wholemeal flour.
One must expect some differences in the final product when whole wheat flour is substituted for white or all-purpose flour. A fairly safe practice is to replace no more than one-third of the flour with whole wheat flour. This ensures proper rising and a delicate crumb. As the proportion of whole wheat to white increases, the baked product will be increasingly dense with less rise and a tougher, more chewy crumb.
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.
No. Rice flour is made from rice. Plain flour is refined wheat flour. Self rising flour is refined wheat flour with baking powder and salt already in it. Wheat flour has gluten, rice flour does not and cannot be used to substitute for wheat flour.
no, wheat bran is an additive that can be ADDED to products as where wheat flour IS the product
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.
The recipe for whole wheat bread requires 3 cups of bread flour, and 1 cup of whole wheat flour, making the ratio of whole wheat flour to total flour used to be 1:4.
