What it is

Unenriched unbleached wheat flour is made from wheat grains that have not had any nutrients added back after processing. The 'unbleached' part means it was not treated with bleaching agents, which are sometimes used to whiten flour and change its baking properties. It is a basic ingredient used in many baked goods and other food products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use unbleached wheat flour as a primary structural ingredient in baked goods like bread, cookies, and cakes. It provides the bulk and framework for these products. It can also be used as a thickener in sauces and gravies.

Health notes

Unbleached wheat flour is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and some B vitamins and minerals, though less than enriched flour. The World Health Organization (WHO) has not set a specific intake level for flour itself. Evidence does not suggest negative health effects from typical consumption of unbleached flour.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. Therefore, unenriched unbleached wheat flour is a major allergen. It also contains gluten.
