Flours: Nutrition Facts and Calories
Flours are a staple ingredient in many kitchens, forming the base for bread, cakes, pastries, and more. This category includes a variety of milled grains, such as wheat, rye, and corn, as well as gluten-free alternatives made from rice, oats, or legumes. When choosing flours, consider the ingredient list. For wholemeal or wholewheat flours, the word 'whole' should appear first, indicating that the entire grain has been used, which typically means more fibre. Fibre contributes to a healthy digestive system. While flours themselves don't usually contain added sugar or salt, these can be present in the final baked product. Check the nutrition information for salt content, as the UK government recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day. For those managing gluten intake, look for clearly labelled gluten-free options. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
