Qu'est-ce que le/la/l'Unsifted Purpose Flour ?
Unsifted purpose flour refers to wheat flour that has not undergone the sifting process after milling, meaning it may contain varying amounts of bran and germ alongside the endosperm. This results in a slightly coarser texture and a more robust flavor compared to finely sifted flours. While less common commercially, it is essentially a whole-grain-like flour that retains more of the wheat kernel's original components.
"Unsifted purpose flour offers a straightforward route to incorporating more whole-grain nutrition and rustic texture into everyday baking without needing to blend multiple flours."

For recipes requiring a finer crumb, you can often achieve a good balance by replacing up to 25% of the unsifted purpose flour with a finely milled cake or pastry flour, or by sifting it yourself to remove some of the larger bran particles.
