The difference between wheat flour and flour:
1, the production process is different: wheat flour is directly polished from wheat without hulling, and it also contains many wheat hulls, which have a rough texture. Flour needs to be shelled first and then polished, with a delicate and smooth texture and white color.
2. The uses are different. Wheat flour belongs to coarse grains, which can promote human digestion. Flour belongs to flour and rice and is divided into three types: high, medium and low gluten flour, which is suitable for making bread, noodles and cakes.
Selection method of wheat flour
1, look
See if the outer package indicates the name, address, production date, shelf life and quality grade of the factory; See if there is any trace of unpacking and reuse of the sealing line, and if there is, it is a counterfeit product.

According to different uses, the corresponding varieties of wheat flour should be selected. If making noodles, steamed bread, jiaozi, etc., we should choose rich and strong flour and special flour with high gluten content; Wheat flour with low gluten content is selected for making cakes and biscuits.
