Over the past year I have cut most all white flour and white sugar items from my diet and eat primarily a low fat, low cal, whole foods diet. I’m learning about new grains, but am becoming overwhelmed by the endless types of flours available. For instance, Bobs Red Mill offers everything from coconut to oat to quinoa flour.
What is the best way to learn which flour is best for which recipe? Also, are there any sites that you can recommend that provide recipes that are low fat, low cal and use these healthy grains in the process? I’m hoping to begin to use these grains and cut the wheat from my diet. Is that possible and if so, what are the best resources available?
P.S. I’m fairly new to the kitchen and don’t have a lot of spare time, so I prefer to keep recipes and food prep fairly elementary!!

Hi Paula
there is a very good description of all different types of flours on the BBC website
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A2198586
in the same website you can find interesting recipes by reputable chefs – just enter the word ‘flour’ in the quick recipe search box. Some of them are inspired from the British tradition….
