What can I substitute for Wondra flour?
Developed by Gold Medal Flour in the early 1960s, Wondra is most commonly used when making turkey or chicken gravy. It can also be used in baked goods as well as fish and poultry dishes. Use it to thicken gravies, soups, stews, and sauces. Its lightness makes it perfect as a dredging flour for fish and poultry.
But don’t start using Wondra flour in everything. You don’t want to waste it on most cooking and baking applications, so keep it on hand for making batters, dredging proteins, and preparing roux-thickened sauces. The benefits of Wondra flour are endless, and adding it to your pantry is a wise investment.
