T45 French Style Flour - SwissBake

Swiss Bake French style flours are traditionally milled by artisan millers and the entire flour range is produced from imported French grown wheat or with a blend of locally grown equivalent wheat varieties.
These quality flours from us are a result of our dedication and passion for well-crafted flour.  Each year we produce only a limited quantity of each refined flour on order estimates from our most demanding chefs and bakers.

French classification for flour is based on the resulting amount of residue after processing 10 kg of flour in a 600º C furnace. T45 or Type 45 is the lowest and whitest flour with only around 45 grams of mineral contents left after the burning process and no part of the bran (outer enveloping shell of the grain) remaining. Similarly, T150 has around 150 grams of mineral contents and is considered as whole-wheat flour due to high bran leftover. 
Pure French style flour, perfect for making high-quality cakes and sweets. It is fine, soft and white in color. It is very light in texture and has very little mineral content. T45 is finely ground flour using the soft wheat varieties.
It is not suitable for bread but is typically used for brioche and sometimes for croissants. T45 refers to the amount of mineral content that is left after burning the flour i.e. T45 has 0.45% mineral content.
T45 flour is equivalent to Type 00 Italian flour, Euro 450 type flour and American Cake flour.
Mineral Content : 0.40% - 0.45%   
Protein Content  : 8.50% - 9.50%
Key Ingredients : 100% milled soft wheat
Swiss-Bake French style T45 flour is neither bleached nor chlorinated.

Role Of Salt In Bread Baking - Swissbake

Towards the end of 18th Century, the influence of salt was recognised in baking bread. Salt was seen to have an important role to play in bringing out the flavour of the baked product. During mixing, salt reinforces the plastic properties of the dough and improves its cohesiveness and elasticity. Later in the 1960’s, it was understood that salt also acts as an antioxidant, it was then that many bakers adopted a practice of delaying the addition of salt. Fine table salt was used as it would dissolve quickly and so it could be added just 5 minutes prior to the end of mixing time. This was done with the use of intensive mixing methods with the intention to encourage maximum levels of oxidation and bleaching. This method also tends to facilitate the forming of gluten bonds during dough formation and results in a slight improvement in dough strength. However, this method also led to the decline in the taste of the bread baked. The common practice today in the production of bre...
