[Sca-cooks] Harina de flor...

[Terry Decker]

The literal translation from the Latin is "fine meal of flour."  In Medieval 
terms, it is finely ground meal, that has been bolted three times with the 
last bolting through a fine weave bolting cloth.  For practical purposes, 
you can use all purpose or bread flour and pass it through a sifter to 
eliminate any clumping.
