Specialty Flour?

[kimmercake.livejournal.com]

As I delve deeper into the world of bread baking I'm looking for a place to find specialty flours. By that I mean different high gluten versions of bread flours (like at the bottom of the page here), not stuff like semolina, amaranth, rye flours (I know where to find those).

I've found a decent selection of bulk flours at the Harvest Market in Central but they don't have the gluten variety I'm looking for. King Arthur has a decent selection too but I've not tried any of them. A Yelp search brought up Christina's Spice & Specialty Foods in Inman but I think those are more of the flours I mentioned above I'm not looking for. My next stop might be the bulk bins at Whole Foods.

Can anyone suggest a place where I can browse and buy these specialty type of flours? And, if not, are there e-tailers? Also, any recommendations for specific types of flour you've used with good results would be awesome too.

Hope this isn't too far off topic here. Thank you so much! [x-posted]

Do you know what the gluten count is on that?

I don't think they list it, but Google tells me that the one offered by Bob's Red Mill is 75% gluten.

If it's their "Sir Lancelot" flour, 14.2%. They also have an organic high-gluten flour at 14.0%, and a first clear flour as well. I'm glad to see they're now selling these online, even if only in 3# bags; used to be you could only get them in 50# bags from a wholesaler.

I've ordered KA's organic bread flour and organic white whole wheat flour from their website, and been very happy with the products and the service.

Cool, thank you!
