Flours plain

Plain Flour. This product is the ordinary flour used for most home baking. The equivalent product in the USA is general purpose flour, although one will not necessarily substitute for the other. This type of flour is sometimes called household flour. 

British plain flour is made to a very wide specification that guarantees that it is white, unbleached and untreated. The Hagberg Falling number should not be too low. 

A common grist would be mainly soft wheat with possibly some hard wheat added at up to 20% to encourage flowability and good mixing. Hard wheat that has failed a quality control for bead making can end up in plain flour. 

While plain flour is intended as a domestic product it does find its way into some bakeries for some uses. 

Self Raising Flour. This product is a soft wheat flour with a chemical raising agent, also known as leavening agent, added. It can always be substituted by a mixture of plain flour and baking powder. 

An obvious use of bake testing is to compare the performance of two different batches of flour. In this exercise it is suggested that the control batch is a bread flour while the test should be a non-bread-making soft flour such as an English plain flour.

High nitrogen solubihty index (NSI), soy protein for manufacture of meat analogs is prepared in flash desolventizers. Some soybean extraction plants send part of their marc through a flash desolventizer to serve the high NSI soy flour market and the balance of their marc through desolventizer/toasters to serve the animal feed soy meal market. The first flash desolventizer was commissioned by EMI Corporation (Em. Corp., Des Plaines, Illinois) in 1960 (214).

Soybean flour will wet and swell in plain water but will not disperse to yield useful adhesive properties. For this purpose, treatment with a soluble alkaline material is necessary. Almost any organic or inorganic alkali will disperse wetted soybean flour to some degree. However, soybean wood glues of maximum bonding efficiency require dispersion with several percent of a strong alkali such as sodium hydroxide or trisodium phosphate... 

Many hundreds of years passed before the need arose to handle other than water in a continuous mechanical manner. The demand to process large quantities of grain from the newly exploited vast American plains led to the mechanisation of flour mills, an early type of which is thought to have been made by Evans around 1742. His grandson, Oliver Evans, built a fully mechanised mill in 1785 that included belt conveyors, bucket elevators and a... 

Today, flour must be plainly marked "bleached" if one of several government approved oxidizing-maturing agents has been added. 

There are other kinds of noodles manufactured from starch and nongluten flours. The most popular are starch- and gluten-free rice noodles.

Due to the lack of...
