Default flour choice for bagels?

I sure wish my Costco sold it. All I can find at our Costco, Hanover, NJ,
is a "Bread flour" that has a gluten/protein of 10-11%.

If you can find All Trumps... this is the best I have found for a great
robust flavor and has protein level of 14%. Puros has a will call ability,
and so does Dawn Foods. Most suppliers are willing to sell to the public
now a days due to the lagging economy. If you can't find a supplier, go to
GM website and ask them for a lead.

And probably bleached, too.

That's about the level of protein that the regular King Arthur flour
has. KA sells a Sir Lancelot bread flour that's over 14% gluten, and
they recommend using a heavy duty mixer to knead it so the full gluten
potential is developed.

Cindy,

Take a short drive to Whole Foods. WheatMontana is higher protein level
than Sir L. AND, it is priced much, much lower, too.

I've been hounding our local Whole Foods (Madison, NJ) to get the Wheat
Montana set-up, but no luck so far. To get WM, I have to hit Wegman's in
Bridgewater, which is about 30 miles away. (30 miles may not sound like
much, but in NJ traffic, it's a lifetime. <g>)

Oh yeah, another reason why I gave up on living in Garbage State more
than 30 years ago. ( I was raised in Plainfield.)
