hickpea flour, also called garbanzo flour, is known in Indian and Pakistani baking as
gram
or
besum,
and used for naan and chapatis. It is also used extensively in Greek baking, especially on Crete, where a bread called
eptazymo
is made from ground toasted chickpeas. Chickpea flour is not usually used in yeast breads in America, but one taste of this bread will change that. Chickpea flour is enticingly sweet, flavorful flour ground from lightly toasted green chickpeas. This bread is made in the manner of the Greek country bread, though a tad richer (I use evaporated goat’s milk and scrape the “cream” off the top of the can), and is great spread with cream cheese or goat cheese and orange marmalade. This dough can be made into

rown rice flour has its germ and bran left in after grinding. A staple in gluten-free breads, brown rice flour is also a flavorful addition to wheat breads. It has a beautiful silky texture and absorbs liquid slowly, making it an excellent flour to keep on hand for dusting loaves and pizza. This is a great sandwich bread.
