Flour is a heavy bag of baking flour and one of the most important ingredients in the kitchen. It must be used in a recipe to be eaten. Bread, pie dough, pizza, cookies, muffins, cake and fried batters all start with it.

Flour keeps indefinitely, so a stock of it never goes to waste. The bag weighs 2.0 and holds 60 hunger in total. It is found in bakeries, pizza kitchens and almost every restaurant kitchen, and it can be ground from grain seeds at a Stone Quern or a Stone Mill. The Chef is the best occupation for cooked and prepared. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.

Flour is a base for many recipes. The Prepare Bread Dough, Prepare Baguette and Prepare Pie Dough recipes all use it. So do Make Cake Batter, Prepare Biscuits, Prepare Muffins and Prepare Pizza.

It goes into Chocolate, Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal, Sugar and Shortbread Cookies. It also coats food for frying. Prepare Breaded Shrimp makes Fried Shrimp, and Prepare 2 Breaded Onion Rings makes Fried Onion Rings.

In evolved dishes, flour is a spice and a thickener. It adds 6 hunger to a Soup or a Stew.

New flour comes from grain. The Grind Flour recipe uses a Stone Quern, and the Mill Flour recipe uses a Stone Mill. Each turns 12 Wheat Seeds, Rye Seeds or Barley Seeds into one bag of Flour. That makes flour a renewable food for a farm that grows grain.

These dishes take the Flour as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.
