Here's a good thread at Chowhound about it & many uses.

Thanks-if I had read on the sack a little further I would have seen BP and salt added. There are recipes on the sack for biscuits, pancakes, chocolate cake ect; This flour is Hudson Cream, one of the best flour Mills in Ks. Everyone loves their flour.
