Kind gentles, a newbie question. What is a bolting cloth?
Mister Dictionary says:
bolt vt [ME bultan, fr. OF buleter, of Gmc origin; akin to MHG biutelnX
to sift, fr. biutel bag, fr. OHG bu-til 1: to sift (as flour) usu. through
fine-meshed cloth archaic 2: SIFT
bolt (bolt) verb, transitive
To pass (flour, for example) through a sieve.
[Middle English bulten, from Old French buleter, from Middle High German
biuteln, from biutel, bag, purse.]
