When baking, Nafos Flour typically forms the primary structure of cakes, cookies, and breads. It is often combined with leavening agents like yeast or baking powder to achieve desired textures. For sauces and gravies, it can be cooked with fat to create a roux, which then thickens liquids. When frying, it can be used as a coating to create a crispy exterior on meats and vegetables. The amount used will vary depending on the specific recipe and desired outcome, but it is essential for binding ingredients and providing substance.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to whole wheat flour, Nafos Flour is lighter and has a finer texture due to the removal of bran and germ. This results in baked goods that are typically softer and have a more delicate crumb. It also has a more neutral flavor profile than flours with more bran content.
