sir galahad all-purpose flour

Sir Galahad is a bleached, all-purpose wheat flour produced by Sargento Foods Company (now part of a broader grain milling operation) in the United States. It is milled from soft wheat varieties and treated with chlorine gas to improve baking properties, resulting in a fine, white powder with a protein content typically between 10-12%. The flour is designed for versatility across a wide range of baking applications, from breads and cakes to pastries and quick breads, without requiring specialized handling or adjustments.

Sir Galahad all-purpose flour serves as a foundational ingredient in American baking, suitable for yeast breads, quick breads, cakes, cookies, biscuits, and pastries. Its moderate protein content and bleached character make it particularly well-suited for tender cakes and lighter baked goods that do not require the strength of bread flour. The flour is commonly used in both home baking and commercial food production, offering consistent performance across diverse recipes without the need for supplementary flour types.
