Type 550 Wheat Flour
Type 550 Wheat Flour is a finely milled wheat flour widely used in baking and everyday cooking for breads, pastries and thickening sauces. It’s a versatile pantry staple in many cuisines and is known for producing light, tender baked goods. Nutritionally it is mainly a starchy ingredient and provides 10g of protein per 100g; refined all-purpose flours are relatively low in fiber and have fewer vitamins and minerals than whole-grain alternatives. Compared with whole-grain flours, it offers less dietary fiber and fewer protective plant compounds, so it’s often best used in combination with higher-fiber ingredients or swapped for whole-grain flours when you want a more nutrient-dense option.
