Thanks for the the differences that these flours bring to the table.
Jack's teeth are blinding now.
I LOVE buckwheat pancakes. Accept no substituents! Always enjoy Jack's presentations 👍
That was a good video, does almond flower need to be stored in the fridge ?
Thanks, Michael
Thank you Jack🤗
Rice flour is awesome for tossing chicken wings in, nice crunchy skin
Can you provide the ratio to substitute almond/tapioca flour for regular flour
Almond.. I can’t get behind it. Especially if grown in USA since that means drought states.. those places need to waste water like…. I don’t know what..?
YT is still not posting your uploads with subject info. Any idea who’s responsible for the mess? For ATK's sake complain loud and long! Me, from N.H. 🥴 ❄️👵🏻
Saw someone selling watermelon flour online. New to me.
Thanks for the info! Question: I followed a pizza dough recipe that called for adding in some soy flour to make it a little healthier/add more protein.
Problem is, soy flour seems extraordinarily hard to find – I ended up buying a small expensive pack of it on Amazon. Do you know where I can buy soy flour and/or is there a good alternative?
almond flour is the best and healthiest option… all other flours make me sick
Even a video under 3 minutes is inspiring. Love this channel
I rarely buy flour anymore. Countertop grain mill allows me to grind my own flour from whatever grain I can get my hands on, as fine as 00. Wheat berries, chick peas, rice etc. Not to mention fresh milled flour tastes completely different to anything you can get off the shelf. I notice a nutty flavour with the red wheat berries I use. If I do have to buy it, I get it from a spot in Vancouver that mills to order and it's here in 24 hrs.
Thank you for the info- trying to stick to gluten free- would love recipes that goes with those flours. I appreciated the details given of ideas to make with them!
Chick pea or gram flour. Used in a lot of Indian cooking.
What about coconut flour or spelt flour?
Loved this, very informative…

Neat, I got Almond Meal and Buckwheat correct just by looking
What is good flour using for pizza dough
What about acorn flour?
My mother used to sit for hours, manually breaking open walnuts and then crushing their meat into flour — no electric tools used — and she made the most amazing chocolate cakes this way. The texture was light and fluffy, although not as moist as store-bought, flour-based cakes. Walnut flour.
If it doesn't have gluten, it doesn't deserve a spot in my pantry. Sorry.
Which would you recommend for making a roux?
Do not buy almond products, ever! Almost all commercial almonds are grown in California. They take more input water, per calorie, than beef and the groves, organic and nonorganic, are heavily sprayed with pesticides which are believed to be the primary cause of the decline of commercial honeybees as almost every commercial bee in NA is trucked to the almond groves every year to pollinate them.
I wonder if you have tried Einkorn flour and Spelt flour.
1:22 – Mix this flour with eggs, and you can do just about anything with it. I use it exclusively now as I lost 35L in 100 days avoiding sugar and grains. Lots of great recipies for it! ❤
