how to make cake flour at home/cake flour substitute–Cooking A Dream
If you’re like most home cooks and just a casual baker chances are you only have general-purpose flour in your pantry. And that’s usually all you need: Recipes for cookies muffins and other baked goods typically don’t call for anything more than AP flour.
Every now and then you may come across a baking project that calls for a special type of flour. Maybe you want to finally get your hands on sourdough (which requires bread flour) or make a show-stopping cake (which requires cake flour). If you’re making the latter you don’t have to run to the store to buy a bag of cake flour because it’s easy to make a suitable alternative at home. All you’ll need is all-purpose flour and cornstarch.
Cake flour as the name suggests is often used in cakes. It is a soft low-protein fine-textured wheat flour milled from the endosperm of the wheat grain. It is lighter and has very little gluten which results in soft less dense baked goods. All-purpose flour generally has a protein content of 10 to 13 percent while cake flour contains eight to nine percent protein.
