Caputo Baking Flour Tipo 00 1 kg

$7.49
Description

Baking Flour is the softest in the Caputo range: around 200 W, 11% protein. Low gluten, which is exactly what pastry wants, because strength here reads as chew.

The very fine Italian grind takes on liquid and fat cleanly. Doughs stay pliable, batters stay smooth, and cakes hold their moisture longer than they do with an all purpose flour.

Consistency is the real argument. Bag to bag it behaves the same way, which matters when you make a recipe often and want the same result every time.

Cakes, biscuits, tarts, crostata: it covers the sweet side, and it makes good use of a pizza oven late in the evening once the heat has dropped.

How to work with it

In pastry

  • Mix as little as possible once the flour is in, gluten builds fast even at low strength
  • Sift for cake batters, a grind this fine clumps easily
  • Weigh rather than measuring by cup, the gap can reach 20%

In the pizza oven

  • Wait for the temperature to drop below 200 °C
  • Set the tray away from the embers and turn it often
  • A crostata baked late in the evening comes out remarkably even

For bread and leavened doughs the strength is too low. Bread Flour takes over there.

FAQ

Can it replace all purpose flour?

In most sweet recipes, yes, and the texture will be finer. For bread and leavened doughs it is too soft. Use Bread Flour there.

Does it work for puff pastry?

Yes. The fine grind and low strength give an even lamination, provided you keep the butter properly cold through every turn.

Is this the same as North American cake flour?

Close, but the Italian grind is finer and the flour is not chemically bleached. The texture is silkier and the flavour more neutral.
