Gluten is made by washing the starch from high protein flour. It is found in its highest

concentration in wheat. Make and knead a stiff dough of the flour and water. Roll it into a

ball and submerge in water for 2 hr. Then, keeping the ball underwater, work the starch out

of it by kneading. At intervals, pour off the starchy water. Recover with water and repeat until

the water runs clear. Make a loaf and slice in 1/2\
