What it is
Bleached wheat flour is made from wheat that has been treated with an oxidizing agent to make it whiter and age faster. This process improves its baking qualities, making it suitable for a variety of baked goods. It is a common ingredient in many processed foods.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use bleached wheat flour for its refined texture and improved baking performance. It is a primary ingredient in products like breads, pastries, tortillas, and pasta. Its consistent quality makes it a reliable choice for commercial baking.
Health notes
Bleached flour is a common ingredient in the US food supply. The FDA considers it safe for consumption. Enrichment with B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid) and iron is common, as some nutrients are lost during the bleaching process. JECFA has evaluated it and established an acceptable daily intake. No significant health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical dietary levels.
Allergen info
Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Bleached wheat flour contains gluten, a protein found in wheat that can cause adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
