	Welcome to American Soybean Association Asia Subcontinent's
		Wheat-soy flour is wheat flour fortified with defatted soy flour up to a maximum of 10 per cent.
		In the early l990s, the Government of India's Prevention of Food Adulteration (PFA) act was amended to include a new category called 'paushtik atta' (A.18.01.02, PFA 1996), allowing a maximum of 10 percent fortification of wheat flour with other protein sources such as defatted soy flour and defatted ground nut (peanut) flour.
		Soy flour is rich in protein and has an excellent profile of amino acids, particularly lysine, which is deficient in wheat flour.

		Atta is a form of wheat flour commonly used in South Asian cooking.
		Traditionally, atta is made by stone grinding process, a process which imparts a characteristic aroma and taste to the bread.
		The high temperatures of friction reached in a "chakki" (stone grinder) are of the order of 110-125 deg C. At such high temperatures the carotenes present in the bran tend to give out the characteristic roasty smell of atta and contribute to the sweetness of the atta.

	Wheat Flour, Whole Wheat Flour
		Hard flour, or "bread" flour, is high in gluten and so forms a certain toughness which holds its shape well once baked.
		Soft flour is usually divided into cake flour, which is the lowest in gluten, and pastry flour, which has slightly more gluten than cake flour.
		All-purpose flour is a blended wheat flour with an intermediate gluten level which is marketed as an acceptable compromise for most household baking needs.

		Flour is the key ingredient of bread, which is the staple food in many countries, and therefore the availability of adequate supplies of flour has often been a major economic and political issue.
		Bleached flour is flour that was subjected to flour bleaching agents for health purposes, to whiten it (freshly milled flour is yellowish), and to give it more gluten-producing potential.
		Atta flour is also an important flour in Indian cuisine, being used for a range of breads such as roti and chapati.

	Whole Wheat Flour
		Whole wheat flour is a powdery substance derived by grinding or mashing the whole wheat berry.
		Usually, whole wheat flour is not the main ingredients of baked goods due to its quality to add texture and a certain "heaviness" to baked goods which prevents them from rising as well as white flours.
		The word "whole" refers to the fact that all of the berry is used and nothing is lost in the process of making the flour, rather than referring to the complete berry in its natural grown state.

		Poppodums and pappads - the pre-made and precooked flat breads (made from legume flour (urad) and rice flour) that need only be immersed in hot oil to puff up instantly; they are turned with a skimmer so that they stiffen up slightly and then are drained and served while still crisp.
		Regular whole wheat flour gives heavier results and is stiffer and more difficult to work with than chapati flour.
		If regular whole wheat flour must be used, sift is several times through a very fine sieve (to get a fine flour and to remove bran) and substitute refine flour for half the whole wheat flour in a recipe.

		Atta, very finely ground wholewheat chapatti flour, contains about twice as much fibre as plain flour (which is bleached and refined), and a bit more protein.
		This means that a straight substitution of atta for plain flour would give a cake a slightly heavier, drier texture.
		Atta flour works best in recipes for purposefully moist cakes, and whose main ingredients complement its wheaty flavour, for instance, the American-style carrot cake.

		Meanwhile, wheat flour prices continued the rising trend in Pakistani Punjab despite lifting of inter-district ban on wheat movement chiefly due to unwillingness of the millers to cut the rates in line with prevailing prices of wheat in the market.
		According to the millers it is an uphill task to reduce the prices of wheat flour in Punjab especially when they (millers) purchased the commodity on much higher rate.
		However, the easing of restrictions failed to make any dent in prices of atta price in retail markets and the millers anticipate further hike on the basis of wheat buying on higher rates during this season.
