Any particular reason you recommend all purpose flour instead of bread flour?
Yes, most people have AP flour in the house, where far fewer keep bread flour around. And our King Arthur AP flour is over a percentage point higher in protein than that of other national brands, so it's wonderful for bread, as well as all your other baking. In fact, our AP flour is the one Prof. Raymond Calvel ("the godfather of bread") recommended for baguettes, when he tried it in a blind test while visiting this country - so it definitely has the stamp of approval!
