soft wheat
Low-gluten cereal crop
Soft wheat is a variety of wheat with lower protein and gluten content than hard wheat, producing flour better suited for tender baked goods like cakes, pastries, and biscuits rather than chewy breads.
The softer kernels mill into finer flour.
Most soft wheat is grown in temperate, humid climates: The Southeast produces most of America's soft wheat.
