Sorry. I just feel like I don't do that, they will start dog piling me. And
I do think that sw is wrong about the acid in the flour. I first heard of it
being cooked when Claudine Pepin mentioned the cooked part when she and her
dad were cooking on his show. Asked him if that type of flour could be used
in the particular recipe. He said it could. I actually used it to flour the
Bundt cake pan and it worked for that too. I only have a small amount of
Wondra that will expire in a few months. It was old enough to not have been
in that recall. And I realized as I was dumping out the bag of Gold Medal
that it too was not in the recall either. But it was about to expire so no
problems there. At any rate, I didn't want to open the new bag of flour I
just bought just to flour the pan. I can see now that regular flour might
have worked better. I did have to dust the cake off. But... Somebody ate
quite a lot of it so I guess it is still good.
