Description
Caputo's 'Tipo 1' flour is light brown in colour, with a high protein content sitting somewhere around 13%. With a distinctive flavour and fragrance, this flour is ideal for use in bread-making, pastries and pizza - anything with a long rising time. It is a blend of soft and hard wheat grains, which gives it a slightly coarser texture than Caputos 00 flours - however as its less refined, its more nutritious. The higher gluten and protein content makes this flour perfect for creating a pizza dough that remains light and airy on the inside, but crispy on the outside.
