Louis C.K.s Life Advice is Surprisingly Accurate
What exactly IS white whole wheat flour? Coming from an albino wheat variety, it has the same nutritional value as brown-ish whole wheat flour and has no bitterness. It can be used to replace 25-50% of AP flour in most recipes (not in cakes where you expect an ultra-light texture), and can be a 100% substitute in recipes like cookies, bars, bread, coffee cakes, quick breads, pancakes, waffles and muffins (baked goods will be heartier). Tips: sift www a couple of times to aerate after combining wet and dry ingredients, and let batter sit for at least 10 minutes (makes for a lighter product). http://bakingbites.com/2010/10/what-is-white-whole-wheat-flour/ King Arthur flours available widely locally. Best to store in freezer. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/items/king-arthur-white-whole-wheat-flour-5-lb Beginners’ White Whole Wheat Bread recipe.
