Being 44, gives me the benefit of some limited hindsight, and since I am past the median age in our society, some authority when I make my observation.
While the isle space devoted in supermarkets to white refined sugar and white flour was decreasing.......
Peoples waistlines and all attendant health problems associated with them were increasing.
White flour and sugar sales to consumers down, while consumers health problems due to diet increase.
I am a heretic. I strongly believe that if people bought at the supermarket in their raw form increased amounts of white sugar and flour they would be healthier.. I sure hope they burn me at the stake for preaching this one, here are two easy ways to increase your consumption of white flour and sugar.
1> White homemade bread
Best to mix using a Kitchen Aid or comparable stand mixture, otherwise treat it as a fantastic arms workout.
6 cups white all purpose flour
2 1/2 cups tepid water
1 tablespoon dry instant yeast or if you can get it, 50 grams fresh cake yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon white sugar
1>Mix all dry ingredients together first
2>Add water(fresh yeast)
3>Using a dough hook set the kitchenaid mixer to mix for 15 minutes at the lowest speed.
cover dough and let rise to double volume and punch down
4>let dough rise again to double volume pucnh down and shape into 4 loaves and lay on baking sheet
5>let dough rise further 25 minutes while preheating oven to 425
6>bake 25 minutes
enjoy hot with butter
