Homemade Cake Flour


Making homemade cake flour.
There is a recipe in today's Oregonian for a yellow cake that I'm anxious to try. The recipe calls for 3 cups of cake flour which doesn't mean a trip to the grocery store because it is easy and inexpensive to make yourself.

Cake flour is one of those ingredients that most people don't use on a regular basis so what's the point of paying for a box that you'll just have to store when all you need is a few cups? It's not hard to make because it's just flour and cornstarch sifted together a few times.

Here's the recipe:

Cake Flour
For 1 cup of cake flour, measure out 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Remove 1 tablespoon of the flour and add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Sift two times before using.
