Gold Medal All Trumps

My boss bought me a 25 pound bag of Gold Medal All Trumps Bakers High Gluten Enriched Bromated Bleached Flour as a gift for me because I always make pizza for his young son. I have normally used KA flours for my breads and pizza and haven't tried this stuff he got me. Has anyone here used this flour before? Is it made for a particular kind of baking? Bread, pizza, bagels etc? I know certain recipies say to use regular AP flour and others specify other types, I would take it that this is a stronger flour than an AP. Before I tear into this bag I'd like to know if there is a particular baked good that this flour is made for, and if there is anything I shouldn't attempt to make with it. Thanks.........mattie

Thanks RF, looks like I am set for pizza flour for a few weeks although I might try making some NY style Kaiser rolls. The number on the bag I have here isn't listed on the site you linked tho, the one on my bag is 50115 and mine is bleached. mattie

what the label doesn't tell you is all  gold medal flour unless labeled organic , is a GMO product

I don't know what's more distressing - that you believe it matters on physiological level or that you don't even know what gm crops exist out there.  But I guess these things go hand in hand.

I prefer to use GM All Trumps 50143, which is unbromated and unbleached, malted and enriched.  You folks must be on the East Coast, with all that talk of bromated flour.  My sourdough is chewy and stretchy, just the way we like it.  When I make biscuits, tho, we find the cheapest bleached flour makes the best ones.  In a nutshell, find what you like and use it.

Mattie, maybe you could trade it in for a bag of 50143?  If not, use it for pizzas, try it out for a loaf of bread (add a little more water than usual), and don't worry about it.

Susan,

I'm in the SD area and have been using GM All Trumps as well.  It has performed well and gives good chew.  When I want something a little more tender I mix it with AP flour, the ratio depending on the amount of chew I want.  I don't know where you get yours, but Lakeside Bakery Supply has the All Trumps for around $15 for a 50# bag.

That's my supplier, too, for at least the past couple of years.  Nice people out there.  I've used both All Trumps and Bouncer and am happy with both.  I'd like to find some Wheat Montana AP to try, but haven't located anything other than their whole wheat.  Please let me know if you see any.

Thanks to all for your answers, I guess I will mix this with some regular AP for pizzas and give it a try. I had asked my boss to order me some Durham flour to try but his being from Italy (and shaky on his english) and the language problems between us makes for some interesting translations and a sort of comedy routine the customers get a kick out of, most of them come they say just to hear the two of us trying to converse with each other, I must admit we do have lots of fun at work and I sometimes feel guilty taking a paycheck for it. Thanks again everyone.....now off to the kitchen to mix up some pizza dough for tomorrow. mattie
