Cake Flour Question...
By Anonymous

Hi,
For those of you who are experienced cake bakers, I have a question about flour. I don't want to use the highly bleached cake flour that is available, so I'm looking for alternatives and I've found two: 1) Use a non-bleached cake flour - King Arthur makes such a product; or, 2) Add a starch (corn, potato, etc.) to AP flour.
Via McGee's "On Food and Cooking" I understand why this bleaching process is done but, nevertheless, I don't want to use it. Just an FYI - bleached cake flour is banned in most of Europe and the UK (as of 2004, not sure now).
