Flour is usually made from grinding wheat, maize, rye, barley, or rice.
As the main ingredient in bread, which is the main staple in many cuisines, it is one of the most common ingredients in the world.
White flour, otherwise known as plain or all-purpose flour, contains about 75 percent of the wheat grain, with most of the bran and wheat germ taken out.
It is commonly used for cakes, pastries, and biscuits.
