Flour

Flour is the structure in these recipes: bread flour in focaccia and baguettes, plain flour thickening the béchamel for croquettes, and a light dusting on chicken. Protein level decides the result, with bread flour giving chew and plain flour keeping cakes tender. Spoon it into the cup and level it off, because scooping packs it down and dries out bakes.
