McDougalls Plain Flour

£0.89

Prices checked

Plain flour blends smoothly into batters and doughs, giving a fine, even texture without added raising agents. Whisked into liquid, it disperses easily, making it a reliable base for thickening sauces and gravies. This is a versatile store-cupboard flour, suited to recipes where you want full control over rising. Use it for shortcrust and pastry cases, for Yorkshire puddings, and for dusting worktops and rolling pins when shaping dough. It also works well in cakes and biscuits where a raising agent is added separately, and as a base for roux-style sauces and homemade gravy. Because it contains no raising agent, it gives bakers flexibility to add their own baking powder or bicarbonate of soda depending on the recipe. This makes it a practical choice for households that bake regularly and prefer to measure raising agents themselves. Store in a cool, dry cupboard in a sealed, airtight container to keep it free-flowing and ready for baking day. Once opened, reseal the bag tightly or transfer to a container with a well-fitting lid. Kept this way, it stays in good condition for general baking and cooking use, ready whenever a recipe calls for a plain, all-purpose flour.
