Unfortunately, I cannot seem to find good bread flour that has a protein content over 11% (looked for Laucke, cant find anything except bread machine mixes) so I was thinking of just getting some gluten and adding it to my flour to create stronger bread flours. Any idea where I can buy some? I googled it and all I can find is page after page of 'Gluten Free' stuff!
Thanks, and hi all

Hey
For bread flour in Melbourne, try
Marge and Marees http://www.margandmarees.com.au/
or
Simply no Knead (???) http://www.snk.com.au
They both seem to carry high protein bread flour
If you are in Brisbane or Sydney http://www.homebread.com.au
Happy baking

i've also heard that Loafers (artisan bakers in the city-ish area) can sell you flour. I don't know if its true or not.(i assume they'd just be selling you the same stuff they use).
If you look around a number of supermarkets you may be able to find Lauke. I wasn't able to for a while but now a Coles near me (Caulfield Plaza, in case thats a help!) has some. I reckon if you asked at your local they'd be happy to get some in for you.
When I was still in Melbourne Bakery suppliers supplies wheat gluten to the bakeries....you should check the yellow pages for such information.....
