presifted
Flour, already aerated
Presifted describes flour or another dry ingredient that has been sifted before packaging, eliminating the need to sift it at home: The recipe calls for two cups of presifted flour.
Since most modern flour is presifted, the distinction matters mainly in older recipes that assumed unsifted flour as the default.
