Many friends want to make their own cake at home, but they are distressed that there is no low gluten flour, so today I will mainly share with you how to make low gluten flour at home, and the effect is not worse than that bought.

Let's first distinguish between high, medium and low flours, which are mainly determined by the protein content in the flour, the higher the protein, the more delicate the taste. The protein content of high gluten flour is about 13%, while the protein content of medium gluten flour is about 10.5%, and the protein content of low gluten flour is less than 8.5%, so we can achieve the conversion of high, medium and low flour according to protein.

1) 100 grams of medium gluten flour mixed with 25 grams of corn starch, that is, low gluten flour, if you want a more crispy taste can increase the amount of corn starch in moderation.
❤ Corn starch is more delicate and no gluten, it has a great feature is that the moisture absorption is really good, when the flour encounters liquid, it can reduce the protein in the flour to absorb too much water, thereby reducing the gluten of the flour.
❤ The ratio of flour to starch is 4:1.
2) Put the ordinary flour on the steaming drawer, the steaming drawer should be spread with a dry cage cloth in advance, and then poke a few small holes in the surface of the flour, cover it with a dry cage cloth, steam for 20-30 minutes after the water is boiled, and then crush it with a rolling pin, dry and sieved is the low-gluten flour.
❤ The cage cloth must be dried to prevent the flour from absorbing too much water during the steaming process, because the flour in the dry state itself has no gluten, and it will form gluten when it meets water.
❤ Poking a few small holes in the surface of the flour when steaming can make the air permeability better and the steaming speed will be faster.
❤ After steaming, the flour will clump and you can crush it with a rolling pin.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" >2, high gluten flour is converted to medium gluten flour</h1>
1) 100 grams of high gluten flour and 25 grams of corn starch are mixed well to medium gluten flour, and the ratio is still 4:1.
2) High gluten flour 100 grams and low gluten flour 100 grams are well mixed with medium gluten flour, the ratio is 1:1.
