Let’s cook with it → Invent something with it

What it is for

They build structure. Starch granules swell in hot water, burst, and weave a net that traps the liquid — most of what you call body comes from here. Wheat does one extra job on top: gluten.

Where it catches you out

Starch does nothing before 62 °C, and acid cuts the chains during a long boil. Think about your thickener after the heat and before the acid.

The knack

The nutrient record is for uncooked börek yufka; do not equate it with dried cooked flatbread or buttered baklava pastry.

Storage and health

How to keep it, and who it suits.

Keeping it

Keep the unopened pack in a cool, dry place until its labelled date; after opening, refrigerate for 3-5 days.

Contains gluten

Uncooked börek yufka is made from wheat flour.
