Was "Pastry flour for bread"
I was reading the discussion about "Pastry flour for bread" and noticed that several types of flour were mentioned.  I looked at my bread flour and noticed that it says 4%.  I looked at the AP flour, a common brand, it says 3%. My question is, is it possible to add gluten to increase the protein content in the flour?  I am relatively new at making bread.  I am trying to bake an Italian recipe for crusty bread by translating the ingredients into what is available in the US.  The recipe calls for Flour 00.  Thanks for the advice.

There is a product available here in the United States called 'Vital Wheat Gluten'. It is 75% to 80% gluten. Added to any flour, you'll increase the gluten in the mix
Just Googled it to buy in your area
