Hi I am Eugenie.
Don’t you have cake flour? Don’t worry.
You can make cake flour easily at home with all-purpose flour and corn starch.
Cake flour contains less protein (8%) comparing to all-purpose flour (10-11%).
So today I am going to make cake flour by reducing the protein in flour
and aerating by sifting a few times.
For this recipe, you will need:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons corn starch
First, from 1 cup of all-purpose flour, take out 2 tablespoons of flour.
Then add 2 tablespoons of corn starch in the flour.
And sift the flour and corn starch together.
I am sifting on a paper today.
This way it’s easier to gather the flour for the second round.
Repeat the process.
By sifting many times,
the corn starch and flour are incorporated and aerated very well.
I sifted 4 times.
Voila.
Cake flour substitute.
It’s not cake flour but it’s an easy and very good substitute.
Tomorrow at Eugenie Kitchen.
It’s a hot drink, chocolate one. You know what it is.
Thank you for watching. Bye for now!
