In the culinary sense,
flour is a powder made of cereal grains, other seeds,
or roots. It is the main ingredient of bread, which
is a staple food for many civilizations, making the
availability of adequate supplies of flour a major economic
and political issue at various times throughout history.

of breads and pastries. Maize flour has been important
in Mesoamerican cuisine since ancient times, and remains
a staple in much of Latin American cuisine...
