Can you use bread flour mac and cheese?

Thanks. Yes. Bread flour contains more gluten, so I'd say it's the appropriate choice if making a very dark roux, to counteract some of the lost strength from cooking it.

Can I use bread flour to make a sauce?

You may be able to use bread flour as a thickener for sauce if you don't have any all-purpose flour, but it may not be the best choice. ... Bread flour's composition might not adversely affect most thickening, but it could be a crucial difference if the sauce you're making requires a certain level of starch.

Can I use bread flour for béchamel sauce?

The science behind this sauce Different starches can absorb different amounts of liquid, and can therefore make a sauce thicker or less thick than others. Bread flour, which has more protein and less starch than ordinary flour, is less able to absorb liquid for example.

Can bread flour be used for frying chicken?

For frying the difference will be negligible, but you could add a small amount of corn starch or potato starch to the bread flour to lower the protein percentage.

What's the difference between bread flour and all purpose flour?

The main difference between bread flour and all-purpose flour is a matter of protein.

It's called “bread flour” because most bread requires higher amounts of protein to produce lots of gluten.

Can I use bread flour instead of all purpose for banana bread?

It is not recommended that you use bread flour for baking banana breads, as it is more dense and heavy than banana bread is intended to be. If you prefer not to spend the extra money on cake flour, all-purpose flour is still a great option.
