Default all-purpoe flour

For an "emergency" substitute for pastry flour, I was told in school to
substitute all purpose flour. Or, not having that, equal parts by weight of
bread flour and cake flour. I have done this, with good results.
As for gravies (and roux as well), you want the starch as your thickening
agent, so use cake (low protien) flour.
