FAQ: Can I substitute all-purpose flour for bread flour and vice-versa when making dinner rolls?

  1. Consider the texture you are going for in the final product. Bread flour makes a chewier texture. All-purpose flour gives a lighter, more tender, and fluffier bite.
  2. Are you using any whole grains in the recipe? Bread flour is stronger than AP flour and will help support the whole grain flour to produce a higher rise.
  3. Bread flour is thirstier than all-purpose flour. If you use all-purpose flour in a recipe calling for bread flour, you may need to reduce the liquid or add more flour. Observe the dough as it kneads to determine how much more liquid is required.

If you can't decide, use an all-purpose flour with higher protein content, such as the organic all-purpose flour sold at Costco or the all-purpose flour in the blue bag at Trader Joe's.

One more note: Avoid bleached flour of any kind. The bleaching process affects the flavor.

Bread Machine Cuban Bread

Have you tried the Rapid Bake Cycle on your bread machine? It’s tempting when time is short—press the button and get a warm loaf in just over an hour. How does it work? The machine calls for extra yeast and higher temperatures to speed things up. The trade-off: flavor, texture, and shelf life. Rapid Bake loaves are usually denser, taste flatter, and go stale quickly. Kids may gobble it up, but it’s not the kind of bread you’ll want to share proudly. Bread flavor needs time. Sourdough lovers,...

And if you brush slices of this loaf with browned butter …well,...
