Wheat flour

Wheat flour is a common ingredient found in many food products. It comes from the wheat plant, which produces grains that are ground into a fine powder to make flour. This flour is versatile and used in a wide range of foods, from bread and pasta to cakes and pastries.

To make wheat flour, wheat grains are milled to separate the outer bran layer from the inner endosperm, which is then ground into a fine powder. This process creates different types of flour, such as whole wheat flour or white flour, depending on whether the bran is included or removed. The flour can also be enriched with vitamins and minerals to add extra nutrition.

Wheat flour appears on food labels because it plays a crucial role in baking and cooking. It provides structure and texture to baked goods, helps them rise, and contributes to their flavour. You can find wheat flour in a variety of products like bread, biscuits, cakes, pastries, and even some savoury items like sauces and coatings. It is a staple ingredient in many kitchens around the world.
