In order to protect yourself from trouble do not continue to eat spoiled product. Remember, in the normal state, porridge should not be bitter.
After you traveled the plate of the finished porridge to the side, it is necessary to find out the reason for such trouble. If the grain is still expired, you can try to soak it in salted water for half an hour. Although, best purchase new High-quality packaging of a useful creek.
We already know that the most useful for use is the whole gruse of oats. In order to make it right and tasty:
At the same time, in order to obtain a liquid porridge, the ratio of oatmeal with the basis should be 1 to 3. If you need a viscous consistency, then two and a half cup of liquid should be on the glass of grain.

In this video, Leonid Lomakin will tell you how to choose oatmeal properly, so as not to purchase a poor-quality bitter product:
Each hostess who loves the oven something delicious, should become familiar with this information, as the quality, taste and type of its future baking depends on it. Speech today will go about flour. Do you know what flour is better for baking? How to choose and store it? I suggest read useful advice Hosts, I want to tell you everything I know about the flour.
Literally all commercials say that the best flour for most types of bakery products wheat top grade. It is not worth going to advertise, which only wants to sell you the product that the manufacturer has.
In fact, varieties and types of flour have a lot and each of them is one of them suitable for baking a certain product. For example, Sdobu, cakes and cakes are actually better than the oven of wheat flour of the highest grade. Non-propulsible baking, as well as pies with different stuffing, including sweet, better furnace from the first grade. Dumplings and dumplings, pancakes and favorite pancakes are better prepared from the second variety.
Finding the flour of the right variety in our time is not so easy, as most manufacturers make it only the highest grade (some even write the highest grade, although it is not so).
This is if we are talking about wheat flour, but besides her there are many other species that we will talk about a little later. There is a huge selection of flour, which can be bought or done at home: almond, linen, nut, hemp, corn, barley, rye, soy and so on. You can transfer to infinity! Each of them is good in his role, because the dish gives a unique, unique taste and fragrance. Therefore, you should not be afraid to experiment to find the best flour personally for yourself, with which every cake will become a piece of art, and no damn will be a com.
Wheat flour is the most frequent guest of all kinds in our kitchen. Basically, it consists of starch, but due to special proteins (glutein and glyadin), which are connected to the liquid and turn into gluten (gluten) we get the dough from which delicious piers, pies, yeast and, other bakery products can bake.
To make a good dough from flour and liquid, it needs to be mixed, so that the gluten molecules at this point are able to connect with each other and form long elastic chains. For such a transformation, a sufficient amount of liquid is needed on a certain amount of flour, squeezing, salt and time to "rest" test.
Sometimes for the test it will be necessary to minimize the formation of gluten, to do this, it will be necessary to add completely little liquid into the dough and wash it into short time.
The amount of protein depends on what will be the flour "weak" or "strong". If we need a "weak flour" to prepare the test, the protein content in it should be 10-12%. This indicator can be found on each package - the manufacturer must write. I think you used to see such an inscription on a pack.
The "weak" flour is the usual bakery flour for the preparation of confectionery products. The smaller the protein in it, the more crumbly and gentle will be ready-made dough.
If you need to lower the amount of protein and increase the amount of starch in flour, it is quite simple to do at home. Caught already like? We replace part of flour with starch (potato or corn). The amount of starch depends on what percentage of the protein we need to get.
"Strong" flour contains 13-14% protein. It is most often used to prepare yeast dough. Make it from more rare and expensive wheat varieties. It turns out an excellent puff, custard and exhaust dough, as in this flour more protein, and in the test it turns out more gluten and more long elastic chains. The dough turns hard, it is easy to stretch and does not break.
"Strong flour" is hard to find, so I need to look for Italian and Finnish manufacturers.
In addition to the protein in the flour there is another important component - starch. This is a wonderful thickener, which manifests its properties while increasing the temperature (during baking) if the required amount of fluid is added. Thanks to the starch, biscuits, casserole, puddings and cupcakes are delicious and gentle. Therefore, you can often find starch, which is replaced by some flour in order to make a biscuit better.
Top grade. The flour consists of the central part of the grain, in which there is a lot of starch, but very few vitamins. Only of it may turn out a lush cupcake or biscuit. Moreover, in order to increase the amount of starch, it is additionally added, replacing some flour. Particle size is 30-40 microns., Ash content - no more than 0.55%. White color. Prepare cookies, as the cupcakes and biscuits have already been said, cakes.
First grade. Contains a bit of crushed grain shells, so it is a little more useful than the highest grade. The particle size is 40-60 microns, ash content - 75%. White color, sometimes cream with yellow, rarely grayish. Suitable for the preparation of non-propulsive baking (bread, lean buns, Culebak, pies with filling and pies).
Second grade. In the flour mass already more grain shells. than in previous views. Pomol is quite large. It is rude in appearance. Color gray, sometimes cream and even brown. Waffles, dumplings, cookies, pancakes and pancakes are prepared from it. The dough is cooled, and the baking quickly cries. Not suitable for cooking biscuit or drift. Better the second grade is mixed with the highest or first that the products are obtained more lush. Solness - 1.1-1.2%. This variety is mixed with a rzya flour for making rye baking.
Own or wholerosery. The most useful, as it contains the most useful parts - the embryo and the shell. Particle size is 30-60 microns. Products from it are hard, so they mix whole grain flour With the first, second or even the highest variety.
Lattice. It is very difficult to buy it. Make it from her noodles, dumplings. Not suitable for cooking bread (non-free yeast baking). Its products from it very quickly, and the dough itself is badly rising.
Wholerone - the one that was obtained using one-time grinding of wheat grain together with the shell or any other cereals, has enough high level gluten. It is listed by one of the most useful varieties of flour (much more useful than usual). It is dark and coarse, requires more moisture than the usual one. Dough from wholebreaker cannot be elastic, and finished products are coarse and more solid. It is rational to use the whole grain and flour of top grade in equal amounts, if the other is not provided for by the recipe.
To choose a good flour product that will be stored for a long time without losing its properties, and the products from it will be delicious and useful, you need to be able to choose. Pay attention to the following points:
After you bought a flour product to find out how to store it properly, otherwise the product may spoil and become bitter, absorb foreign smells, absorb moisture from the room indoors. Such a product is not suitable for use and it must be thrown out. Therefore, the flour is not recommended to be purchased.
Now, as it seems to me, you know everything about flour. You know how to choose a flour, how to store it, what it happens and what flour is better for a particular baking. I am pleased to invite you to other sections of my site, where you can find delicious recipes Baking and can apply new knowledge gained from this article.
While wheat flour prevails in the bread of Southern Europe and the UK, rye flour plays a more important role in Northern Bread of Eastern Europe. This is due to the ability of rye to grow on poorer soils and in a cooler, wet climate characteristic of these regions.
Chemical differences in squirrels and enzymes found in rye are differences in the behavior of rye flour when mixing with water for cooking test, and these differences affect the use of this flour for mixing, fermentation and baking. When there is more rye in the dough than wheat flour, it behaves differently.
There are a number different species rye products. They vary in how much rye is part of. They also differ in how small rye is crushed.
Eat bread made of 100% rye flour, but usually different types Bread made with a smaller percentage.
The effect of rye flour on the dough and the taste and texture of the bread varies depending on the share of the rye used.
One-piece rye after soaking can also be used in bread for giving taste and textures. Rye grains are also used after crushing them into smaller pieces in the form of rye flakes.
Gluten is the main protein contained in wheat. Gluten forms cell frames that absorb carbon dioxideproduced by the fermentation of sugar yeast. This leads to the expansion of the test (it "rises") and ultimately forms the texture of the crumb of bread.
Rye contains much less gluten than wheat. Rya gluten is lower quality when it comes to capturing air bubbles. Consequently, bread prepared mainly from rye flour, not rises so muchlike bread prepared mainly of wheat flour. Bishi bread, in which rye prevails, tends to be densewith smaller holes.
On the other hand, rye has more free sugarsthan wheat, so rye dough wanders faster.
Rye contains a group of important complex sugars called penotosan. They are present in other grains, but the rye of this substance most.
Penotosan is important for bake for several reasons. They compete with proteins in gluten production, and water will be the substance that is important here to form gluten. It means that rye dough often requires a greater lobe of waterthan the dough, in which wheat dominates.
Penotosan easily disintegrate during the kneading, and their fragments lead to a more sticky test. Because of this, rye dough requires a softer and, as a rule, more brief mixing than wheat dough.
Ries have more enzymes (amylases) who split starch on sugar. Starch is necessary for the formation of the structure of the ball. If too much starch is split, then the texture of the bread suffers and becomes adhesive. Traditionally, this prevents the acidification of a rye test, which slows the action of amylases. That is why bread with a high percentage of rye flour is manufactured with rye acid (Explosion based on rye yoke), even if commercial yeast is added.
The acidification of the rye test has other nutritional advantages characteristic of rye bread, which can also be of interest to domestic bake. This adds a certain taste that we and we are looking for in Rzhan Bread.
Rye flour - flour, grinding with grain shells. He tends to be coarse and sandy, absorb quite a lot of water, and in general it is difficult to work with it.
Rye flour - mostly solid grain of rye, finely crushed.
Average rye flour - when some (but not all) embryos and bran have been removed.
Light, or white rye flour - equivalent of universal wheat flour. Bran and the embryos were mainly sometimes completely removed.
In Europe, especially in Northern Europe, there is a much wider range of rye flour, which includes various percentages of bran and embryos.
Rye flour containing the oily embryo (dark and medium) is spoiled very quickly, so try to buy flour as fresh and store it in freezer. Otherwise and flour, and products from it, may be misfortune (sometimes very much, so much that baking becomes almost inedible).
A small amount of rye is 5-10% of the total pulley mass - has a certain effect on the taste of bread. The distinctive taste of the rye itself is then immeasured, but the overall taste of bread seems better. This may be due to the action of amylases in rye allocating more Sakharov. The test is so little rye that his behavior when mixing and fermentation and its texture can be indistinguishable from purely wheat bread. Nevertheless, the taste is slightly changing, for the better.
Bread with more than 50% of rye flour is a separate story. All special considerations associated with chemical differences of rye are becoming more important as the share of rye in the test increases. As a rule, such loaves form more flat, and after baking, they should be given to relax over a few hours before cutting, so as not to crumble.
In the case of 70% rye or more, bread may need rest for 24 hours, and even up to several days, until it can be cut. No wonder in Russia ate bread, which is three days or more.
Dough B. rye bread will differ during mixing, trying to be more lipes. The temptation is to add more flour, but it is necessary to resist.
With a manual stuffing rye dough, use fast, light blows, minimizing the contact time of the hands with the test, thus reduces the number of test that will stick to your hands. You can also moisten your hands with water or slightly lubricate them with vegetable oil.
Nutritionists believe that Oats is one of the most suitable cereals for human health. People have long been used in food, let's say, made oatmeal from it. And today nutritionists recommend dishes from this creek both small children and people sitting on a diet and watching their health.

Why does oat flour definitely? It often happens that even freshly bodied flour is grieving a little. Light mustard inherent in this cereal and products from it. But later thermal processing sadness goes away. So, flour, cooked from flakes of rapid preparation, does not care at all. Sometimes a turn around the taste may be at the Old Product. In this case, the flour is great not to apply.
