unbleached flour
Untreated wheat powder
Unbleached flour is wheat flour that hasn't been chemically whitened.
Freshly milled flour is pale yellow; it whitens naturally over several months as it oxidizes.
Bleaching agents speed this process to days.
Unbleached flour retains a slightly off-white color and denser texture: The recipe calls for unbleached flour.
Some bakers prefer it for bread, believing the natural aging develops better flavor.
