Yesterday was a great day for my bread making in the DR. I found Gold Medal bread flour at LA sierena. I grabbed 10 lbs. Maybe I will have more success with that than the two DR brands I tried and tried ....
gold medal is good, pilsbury is good as well. we buy tons of that. check la sirena healthy food section. here in POP they have great selection of flours from bob's red mill.
Where are you located? I haven't been able to find bread flour anywhere on the east coast.
is there any brand of Dominican flour that is even half decent?

^ and yet you neglect to tell us where you find these magical flours....
la sirena in POP has rye flour now! modest price of 252 pesos per pound.
What is your method?
OK, i tried that and got a good rise but it was as hard as a rock.Try adding some ground "La Pela" to the dry mix!!!!!
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
But I do not know that type of flour...
donP, the rye flour they have is from bob's red mill. you can google the details.
if you want to try it i can buy you a bag and deliver it next time i go with miesposo to las terrenas (we are there maybe once every two months).
