Bao Flour
Bao Flour is a finely milled grain product widely used in baking and doughs across many cuisines — here it appears as varieties for bao and steamed buns. It is a relatively energy-dense refined grain and provides a modest amount of protein (10g per 100g), which helps in structure and browning in baked goods. Nutritionally, plain refined flour is lower in fiber and protective plant compounds than whole-grain alternatives, though it contributes useful baking properties and small amounts of minerals such as selenium and manganese. For a healthier swap in recipes, choosing whole-grain flours or blends can increase fiber, micronutrients and beneficial phytochemicals without losing functionality in many preparations.
