Bread Flour

Higher protein content than all-purpose flour, giving breads their chewy texture. Slightly denser, so a cup weighs more than all-purpose.

Why density matters

Bread Flour has a density of 0.53 g/ml. Compare that to water at 1.0 g/ml — a lighter ingredient will give a lower gram count per cup. Generic converters that assume 240g per cup for everything would give you 113g more than the actual weight — which can ruin precision bakes.
