Got this question about French Bread flour this morning:
Question: Which is the best flour for making french breads. We use all purpose enriched bleached flour but all our breads have tough crust and are really dense mass. What do you recommend?
Answer: What you want is flour with slightly higher gluten content to make French Bread. Honeyville makes a nice flour for French Bread. It is available at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0007NC15W/essentialbooks
You can also buy your own gluten and add to all-purpose flour.
Check out our French Bread recipe.
