Mix these combinations together and store in airtight containers.

Note: Although Hagman claims a difference, I find that tapioca flour = tapioca starch; potato flour = potato starch.

Hi Carol, which mix do you recommend to make a bread that is close as possible to wheat-based?
ReplyDeletetapioca starch is the same thing as tapioca flour... Potato is, however, very different from potato flour. This is due to the nature of the plant from which the flour/starch is milled. Look at corn for example, corn starch and corn flour are very different and behave much differently in baking. Same with potato.
ReplyDelete@David: I use a four-flour bean mix recipe to make bread. The bean and sorghum add some colour, flavour and nutrition (mostly protein) which can be lacking in some of the other mixes.
