136: What IS Wholemeal / Wholegrain / Wholewheat Flour? - Bake with Jack

Wholemeal flour can mean many things and in this weeks video I attempt to tell you exactly what it is in it's simplest form, then with a good understanding of what it is you can learn to adapt to it, and we'll talk about that in next weeks video...

If the Brits had any sense they'd stop wasting money on Mary Berry and the Great British Bakeoff and give Jack his own TV show. He has the knowledge, personality, honesty and sense of humour to make it a success. Hey Jack ... the recipe book arrived yesterday; it's better than I expected. Will be making your recipe from it this weekend.

[@robinturner2300]

thepowderriverfarrier aside from the fact that Mary Berry hasn’t been in the GBBO for three years, having been replaced by Cordon Bleu Chef Pru Leith, they have a master baker on the show, Paul Hollywood. Whilst I like Jack, he doesn’t have the depth of experience that Mary, Paul and Pru have.

[@kerrykeightley4954]

I agree.....without wishing to be disrespectful, I followed Paul Hollywood's recipes and vids more times than I can remember, I scrutinised them over and over, yet every time my bread was fine straight out of the oven and then immediately turned into a brick on cooling.......then I found Jack and my bread baking life was changed! I learnt from Jack that it is the badic principles that are important, I also learnt how to keep it simple and gave me the confidence to discard the elements that over complicate. He has a fantastic way of explaining things that is easy to understand and a lighthearted manner that makes you believe that great bread at home can be achieved by us all! Don't get me wrong, I absolutely respect your skill and experience Mr Hollywood, but gosh you can make bread baking seem like a mystical art! TV execs if you're listening you're missing a trick, give Jack his own show!!! 👍

[@wildrainmac1919]

@@kerrykeightley4954 Same here I followed Mr Hollywood though I do not particularly like him but I did follow his recipes as well and my bread was awful when I did it on my own it was good but not great Then I started watching Bake with Jack and I made perfect bread ! Perhaps Jack has that special energy ...that flows through our bread (:

[@jhart3983]

@@robinturner2300 Although I enjoyed baking since I was a young girl, bread making is one venture I never went on. I started exploring late 2019 and I found Paul Hollywood....and yes he is quite masterful. I found a video of a class he taught with a group of young people. I watched their faces and body language and I felt as though they were feeling the way I was---amazed by what he was doing but nervous to try....and to try in front of him. Paul appeared to send a message "watch me what I can do....see how great i am". And yes he was great. Did I try? Nope. But I sure would watch him. Then I found Jack....and my life changed. He made me want to try and BELIEVE that i could. I went to the grocery store and purchased flour and yeast. I baked bread!!! Yay!! Then I ventured out to find tools because Jack makes me want to do it again and again. I bake bread every week now. I bring it to work and share it....Jack encourages us to do that too. There is a difference between the many people who are skilled, perhaps even gifted, crafters and the people who can also TEACH. Students should be slightly leaning forward, eager and hands relaxed and gesturing (even with just their eyes) to want to try. If I had the opportunity and choice between a class with Paul or Jack------Jack the Baker hands down.

Hi Jack from the United States! I grind my own flour and separate the bran and soak it in part of my recipe water and honey for several hours. The end results are an amazing rise and texture of the finished loaf. Bran doesn't like to play nice with the gluten and once soften everybody gets along just fine.

[@richcrompton6891]

That's so interesting Karen. I sometimes autolyse my flour overnight when I'm making sourdough and it really makes a difference too. Maybe the extended soaking is working on the bran in the flour I'm using? Whatever, I'll keep on doing it as it works for me.

[@richcrompton6891]

Karen East wow! I can barely do an overnight! I just want to get the bread baked as soon as it’s ‘done’! I might have to start my bread two days earlier now to see what happens to my loaves! Do you cover or just let them dry in the fridge without a covering? Mine are always uncovered but they are only in there over night.

[@louiserood8499]

I grind my own flour, too, but haven't heard of separating/soaking. I'm excited to try it - thanks for sharing that tip!

[@trijezdci4588]

The bran contains more gluten forming protein than the endosperm. So the statement that bran doesn't play nice with the gluten is manifestly nonsensical. The problem isn't the bran, but the particle size. If you removed all the bran and produced semolina and grist from the endosperm, you would run into the same problem: too large particles. By contrast, if you grind down the bran to the same particle size as the material from the endosperm, then you get a much stronger flour with a much higher water absorption rate (around 100%) and you can make a very soft, moist and fluffy bread from 100% wholewheat flour. In fact, what is sold as wholewheat flour isn't actually flour because flour is defined as having particle sizes below 150 microns. Grind the bran down to 150 microns and you get real wholewheat flour that is actually flour. This can't be done with a stone mill though. The bran is very tough and already flat. You need a hammer mill or a cyclone mill. With such a mill you can also reduce the bran to 150 microns and less. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5fQaHmOormEaNU&lc=UgwFKiW94FljFoOLJH14AaABAg

Thanks, now many terms start making sense from what I've read on bags here in Canada. Especially the part about how flours are basically recombined to make specific mixes. I've been experimenting with your base recipes and tweaking here and there using the principles you teach us. They don't rise the same but I'm happy with the taste and actually found that not rising as much helps make sandwich bread shapes that I like. Biggest trick is adding a bit more yeast and 1tsp of water at a time until there's enough hydration if I work with your blog's recipes. :D

[@snoopaka]

I mill my own whole wheat flour at home. Some recipes recommend sifting the bran out and soaking it to soften the bran so it doesn’t effect the gluten development. Probably not necessary to do this, but not harmful either. 50/50 % split between strong flour and whole wheat makes a very tasty loaf! Can’t wait for next weeks video. It would be great to see you do a 100% whole loaf.

[@stephanepomatto7240]

Nice Channel ! In France, flours are defined by a "Type" number. the number used is an indcation of the whiteness of the flour, and how much the grain has been used. T45 is the whiter and often called "fluid flour". Mainly used in pastry. This flour only has the germ of the grain. T55 is an all-purpose flour, very white too. Then we have flours more oriented for baking. T65 is the reference flour for the famous "baguette". It's warm white, a bit yellow. then T80 which is grey. A flour of excellence for breads. It is also callled "Farine bise". And finally we have semi-complete (T110) and complete (T150) flours. These are the ones you name browns :). They are used in low quantity to enforce the taste of the bread and having stronger hydratation. Hope that helps :)

[@trijezdci4588]

Type 45 flour does not contain the germ. It contains only material from the endosperm. Type 55, 65, 80 and 100 also do not contain the germ. Only Type 150 which is actually extra fine wholewheat flour contains the germ.

Excellent and informative Jack. When I first started baking bread I read many books and made many mistakes. I even got to the stage of sifting out the bran then letting it soak up some of the measured water (bran absorbs water much more slowly) and adding it back into the mix. What an unnecessary waste of time that was. For any newbies don’t get mixed up with the description brown flour and brown bread. If you buy a brown loaf or a bag of brown bread flour, it is a mixture of wholewheat and white flours. Like having a pint of 'alf 'an 'alf at your local 🍺 🙂

[@paulgamblin1860]

One difference between wheat flour and rye flour is the amount of gluten present. Rye flour often has less gluten to start, but it can be developed if done properly. I often use some wheat and some rye in the same batch, to get the flavor of rye and the larger gluten content of the wheat.

[@trijezdci4588]

Rye does not contain any gluten forming proteins at all. NONE WHATSOEVER. The rising ability of rye dough rests entirely on non-starch carbohydrate fibres called arabinoxylans (AX) which are present in rye in high concentration both in the endosperm and in the pericarp, while in all other cereals they are only present in the pericarp. Those are hydrocolloids, they absorb a very large amount of water and thereby form a gel. This gel is comparable to the gel that forms from the gliadins and glutenins in wheat which is called gluten. The gas excreted by the yeasts during fermentation gets stuck in the gel and forms bubbles which then rises the dough. Unlike gluten which is both viscous and elastic, the gel formed by AX in rye dough is viscous but not elastic. For this reason, a rye dough can't stretch as much and the bubbles burst when they get a certain size. As a result, rye dough doesn't rise as much as wheat dough. There is no gluten involved in the rising of rye dough, unless of course you buy gluten extract and mix it in yourself.

[@wllm500]

WOW. Thanks Jack. I know you cannot specifically answer this due to all the variables among flours, but here goes...if you are geeking out on hydration levels, like with maths and science, the addition of "brown" flour (or spelt, eilkorn, or others) would throw off the basic calculation of a baker's hydration... Yes? Any insight on how to generally do a calculation on that? I am currently doing 250 g brown four, 125 g bread flour (strong white flour?) and 125 grams of all purpose white flour for my sourdough with 400 g water. I get great loaves out of it. Basic says 80% hydration but I know the brown flour messes it the formula up a bit me thinks. Any chance of tackling this type of stuffs in an upcoming video?

[@madaddams]

Great video! I'd like to know more about the differences between strong flour and "not strong" flour too.

[@ME_MeAndMyBees]

Strong flour has more protein and thus gluten. Eg Bread Flour is full of protein and thus more Gluten. Think bread versus cake ! Would you use Strong 💪gluten heavy structured flour to make that super fluffy 🍰? Nope ! Lighter baking flour has been processed to lessen the gluten (make it whiter, more refined, has other chemicals added to it. To bake soft and light ! Or have less stringy structure. Eg Cake Flour, Pasta Flour, Rice Flour, Gluten Free Flour... Hope this helps ! * Processing could just be milled finer, seived. Eg Such as Organic Flour. Right up to very low nutritional benefits by being bleached, adding anti-caking agent, having minerals added (calcium, folic acid etc ) Think home made bread to Fast (Junk) Food 😱 Think I prefer Strong Flour any day. A freshly baked crunchy Brown Loaf lasts longer than White Sliced, in fulfilling appetite. But maybe not in the eating of it ! 🤗

When you sift the wholemeal flour and are left with what you say is the white flour, I'm assuming this isn't going to be the same as buying white bread flour? I.e. I can't just sift the wholemeal flour through a sieve and use the resulting flour as if it were white flour? Thanks.

[@oosmanbeekawoo]

4:36 Wow. This is impressive. Though rudimentary xD

[@trijezdci4588]

Wholewheat flour is American English, wholemeal flour is British English. And Legally, wholewheat and wholemeal flour must contain all the contents of the whole grain in the same ratios as they are in the whole grain. There is NO discretion for mills to use the names wholewheat or wholemeal flour for mixtures that do not contain all of the contents for the whole grain in the same ratio as the whole grain. The only allowance made is that a small loss of 2-3% of material that occurs in the milling process is permitted. The same is true in the EU and many other jurisdictions. The notion that anyone can call wholewheat or wholemeal flour whatever they like is a myth.

[@trijezdci4588]

The confusion arises from the naming rules for bread. Whilst wholewheat flour / wholemeal flour must be 100% from the whole grain (in the same ratios as the whole grain), the rules for when a bread may be called a wholewheat or wholemeal bread differ greatly from country to country and those rules are most lax or even non-existent in English speaking countries. So depending on the country, you may find a wholewheat bread on the shelf that was made with 97% refined flour and only 3% wholewheat flour, and that bread can legally be called wholewheat bread there. Even in countries with strict rules, a wholewheat bread is not required to contain 100% wholewheat flour. For example, in Germany a wholewheat bread must contain at least 90% wholewheat flour and in France at least 65%. It is for this reason that many people think that wholewheat (or wholemeal) flour is not strictly defined. But it is the naming rules of bread which are more lax, not the naming rules for the flour, the latter are very strict virtually everywhere.

[@trijezdci4588]

One more thing: Refined flour produced on roller mills will ALWAYS have the germ removed. And the germ counts as part of the bran. In wholewheat flour / wholemeal flour, the germ must always be present.

[@PeterParker-vj1xq]

You're so Cool🤘

[@geminil2415]

What I've learned from this video is that it seems very complicated. I might just stick to white.

[@trijezdci4588]

It is not complicated. All you have to remember is that there are two aspects that affect the baking property of wheat flour: (1) strength, that is how elastic the dough becomes, how much it can stretch, and (2) water absorption, that is how much water the dough can absorb without running flat and losing its elasticity. The stronger the flour and the higher the water absorption, the better its baking properties. Those are the fundamental properties. The strength of the flour depends on the amount of non-water soluble proteins present in the flour, those fall into two groups, gliadins and glutenins and it is those that form gluten when mixed with water. These proteins are predominantly in the outer parts of the grain. Thus, a flour made from the inner parts alone, such as pastry flour will have less of them and therefore the flour with be weak. By contrast, a flour made from more and more of the outer parts of the grain will have more protein and thus the flour will be stronger. The water absorption of the flour depends on three factors: the amount of the aforementioned proteins, the amount of fibres and the particle size of the flour, in particular the particle size of those fibres. The fibres take up much more water than the proteins, but they are only found in the outer parts of the grain. Unfortunately though, the fibres are very tough and it is difficult to grind them down to a small particle size. If they are large, they won't take up much water, but if they are very fine, they take up about 50 times their own weight in water, even though this takes many hours. Thus, a white flour is inferior to darker flours because darker flours have both more protein and more fibres, thus more strength and more water absorption. With wholewheat / wholemeal flours though, the water absorbing fibres are often too large and that inhibits baking properties. The very best results are obtained with superfine wholewheat/wholemeal flour where the fibres have been ground to the same particle size as the softer inner part of the grain. Such a flour will be creme coloured and no bran particles will be visible with the naked eye. Such a flour can easily absorb 100% water (same amount of flour as water) although it may take 10-12 hours. The dough may seem like a pancake batter after mixing, but 10-12 hours later it will have the perfect consistency. It will also have more protein than while flour and thus be stronger than white flour. Unfortunately, it takes a lot more effort to reduce the tough outer parts of the grain to the superfine size and most mills simply won't produce such flours. In general, the finer the wholewheat/wholemeal flour is milled, the better, but the safest way to obtain a superfine wholewheat/wholemeal flour is to make it yourself. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5fQaHmOormEaNU&lc=UgwFKiW94FljFoOLJH14AaABAg
