things people ask

• How many grams are in a teaspoon of whole wheat flour?
  About 2.35 g per level teaspoon. The bran flakes are coarse enough that the spoon never fills as cleanly as it does with cornstarch or powdered sugar, so a quick tap on the rim of the bag helps settle the flour before you level it. Three level teaspoons equal one tablespoon, or about 7 g.
• How much whole wheat flour do I need for a single-serving slurry?
  For thickening a single ladle of pan juices or a mug of gravy, 1-2 teaspoons (2.35-4.7 g) whisked into a tablespoon of cold water or stock is plenty. Stir until no lumps remain, then drizzle into the simmering liquid and cook for at least a minute so the bran softens and the raw-flour taste cooks off. Whole wheat slurries thicken slightly less than all-purpose because part of the weight is fiber rather than starch.
• Can I add a teaspoon of whole wheat flour to pancake or waffle batter?
  Yes, and it is a low-risk way to ease into whole-grain baking. A single teaspoon (2.35 g) per cup of all-purpose adds detectable wheat flavor without changing texture much. If you want a clearer whole-grain character, work up to a tablespoon or two per cup of batter and add an extra teaspoon of liquid per tablespoon of whole wheat to keep the pancakes tender rather than gummy.
