The Gulai House. the House of Spices. Often Described As Spicy, Fragrant
Welcome to the Gulai House. The house of spices. Often described as spicy, fragrant and flavourful, Malaysian cuisine draws from a melting pot of spices and herbs from the old spice routes of Asia, greatly influenced by neighbouring Indonesia, India, China and the Middle East. Incorporating only the freshest ingredients, Malaysian cooking uses fresh herbs such as serai (lemongrass), pandan (screw pine leaves), and kaffir lime leaves, as well as lesser known ones such as daun kemangi (a type of basil), daun kesum (laksa leaf), nutmeg, kunyit (turmeric) and bunga kantan (wild ginger buds). Traditional spices such as cumin and coriander are used to complement the Indian and Chinese spices such as pepper, cardamom, star anise and fenugreek. Fresh herbs and dried spices are normally pounded together to make a fine paste and are then cooked in oil. Fresh coconut milk is often added to create a creamy flavour to the dishes. Take a rich culinary journey into the intriguing world of spices.

Types of Flour Used in Baking
FN-SSB.921 Types of Flour KNEADS A LITTLE DOUGH Used in Baking The use of different flours will result in varied textures, flavors, and nutritional value. Some flours will produce a heavy, compact bread, while others will produce a lighter bread. Some flours may cause a full- bodied or bitter flavor while others present a nutty, woodsy flavor. Follow your recipe for best results. With practice you can begin to substitute flours with good success. All-purpose flouris a blend of hard and soft wheat. Self-rising flouris simply all-purpose flour pre-blended with baking powder and salt. Bread flour is made from hard wheat, which has a high protein content. It is the preferred flour for making bread. Enriched flourhas the B-vitamins and iron, that are lost during milling, added back to the flour. Whole-wheat flouris milled from the whole kernel. When used alone, whole-wheat flour produces a heavy, compact, dark bread. The germ and bran cut the developing gluten strands. Whole-wheat bread flouris ground from hard wheat and has a higher gluten content. To create your own whole wheat bread flour, add one tablespoon gluten to each cup of whole-wheat flour. Graham flourresembles whole wheat flour in taste but has less protein. Durum flouris made from the hardest of wheats. A bread made entirely from durum wheat is inedible. Semolina flouris durum flour minus the bran and wheat germ. It is usually used as a pasta flour but can be used in breads. Kamut flouris a relative of durum wheat. It is high in protein but low in gluten, so it must be combined with a higher gluten flour to produce an acceptable bread.
