Well I’m down to my last 3K bag of strong white.
I do have some 00 for pizza some plain for sauces and pancakes and self raising for baking cakes.
I use a lot of flour since I got my stand mixer.
But as most bread recipes I do, need around 500 to 700 grams of strong white a standard bag of 1.5 kilos doesn’t really stretch very far.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

And, BTW, if you think £3-odd for 1.5kg is outrageous, check out prices on eBay.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

Asda own brand flour is between 40 to 60p per Kg (non Organic)
Allinsons is about 1.33 per Kg
£19 for a 1.5Kg bag of Strong White Allinsons on ebay.
Capitalism at its finestI'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Never use flour as too lazy to bake. Think there's a years old bag in the cupboard somewhere, probably got weevils in it but a bit of added protein should be healthy.bloggoth
