Choose for the dough
For recipes calling for Italian farina 00, choose the flour by the intended dough. Products sold as all-purpose flour are not automatic substitutes, and Italian 00 flours can also differ: Caputo’s Pizzeria and Pasticceria are both labeled 00 but have different strength and protein specifications.
Follow the recipe’s flour recommendation and the mill’s intended use before substituting between pizza dough, cakes and shortcrust.
