Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Where Can I Buy Flour?
I'm sure you've heard this question already (!) this week, but does anyone know if anywhere in Haringey delivers flour for home baking? Or anywhere I can pick it up local to N8?
Thanks!

Saw a TV report the other day
Not a issue of Flour Shortage
But it takes longer to bag for retail than Trade
One of the joys of people being stuck at home and deciding to Bake When normally they would buy ready make items

Sable d'Or the cafe in Crouch End is now selling flour, yeast etc. The problem with flour is not overall supply, it's that most of it is sold direct to the food trade for baking, and only a small amount goes into supermarket-sized bags.

Ah thanks for that tip Maddy - it would never have occurred to me to check that place. I shall be on the hunt for yeast today as my rather elderly store of fresh yeast in the fridge has died.

Just to confirm that Sable d'Or has a load of yeast. They sold me a slab around 200g of fresh but they also have dried in large packs. Made my day.

Pretty much any Turkish grocer will have it, have bought it twice in the first places I looked since the lock down.

Plain Flour seems easier to get hold of.
Self-raising flour much more difficult to find.
Can't find any dry yeast either! Fresh yeast more inconvenient.

To make self-raising flour add two teaspoon (or equivalent homemade) to 150g plain flour.

I’ve bought 1kg bags of plain flour from Yasar Halim and also the shop next to Mattison Rd bus stop. It’s perfectly fine for cakes if you add a sachet of baking powder which you can also buy from those shops. I’ve made 4 cakes in the past week and all have turned out better than they usually do with self raising.
