About Plain flour

Plain flour, also known as all-purpose flour, is a finely milled wheat flour with a mild flavor and versatile uses. It is made from a blend of hard and soft wheat varieties, typically stripped of the bran and germ during processing, resulting in a smooth texture and neutral taste. Commonly associated with Western cuisine but used globally, plain flour is a staple in baking and cooking, ideal for bread, cakes, pastries, and sauces. Nutritionally, it provides carbohydrates as an essential energy source and contains trace amounts of protein, iron, and B vitamins; however, it lacks the fiber, vitamins, and minerals found in whole-grain alternatives. Plain flour is low in fat but contains gluten, which may not be suitable for those with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. While beneficial as part of a balanced diet when consumed in moderation, excessive intake of refined flour can contribute to weight gain and spikes in blood sugar.
