Wheat is one of the most nutritious and easily digested of foods and is easily absorbed. Bread flour should be used in every thing that calls for yeast. VIII. Care of Flour. When flour is stored for a long time it becomes inferior through fermentation changes. Flour should be kept in a cool dry place, as the least dampness causes it to absorb moisture and the gluten loses its tenacity. It becomes sticky and the bread made from it is coarse and less light.
