Wheat flour

Wheat flour is made from wheat, which is a plant that has long, skinny stems with little grains on top. Farmers grow wheat and then they harvest it, which means they take the grains off the stems.

After the wheat grains have been harvested, they are ground up into a fine powder called flour. This flour can be used to make all sorts of things, like bread, pasta, and cookies.

The reason wheat flour is so popular is that it contains a special protein called gluten that helps dough rise and become fluffy. This means that when you bake bread, for example, the dough will get big and puffy, and your bread will be nice and fluffy inside.

There are different types of wheat flour, like all-purpose flour, which can be used for many different baking recipes, and whole wheat flour, which is made from the entire wheat grain and is healthier because it contains more fiber.

So, in summary, wheat flour is a powdery substance made from ground-up wheat grains that can be used to make all sorts of yummy foods, and it contains a special protein called gluten that helps dough rise and become fluffy.
