It is a flour especially formulated to dissolve easier in hot things. Sometimes it is hard to find. You can use regular flour.

Instant flour is a low-protein, pregelatinized wheat flour to which some malted barley flour has been added. It has been formulated to dissolve quickly in either hot or cold liquids, and is most often called for to thicken gravies and sauces. The best known brand of instant flour is Wondra.

You can substitute all-purpose or cake flour, but if the flour is used to thicken a sauce, you can certainly use all-purpose flour, but you may have to take added precautions to avoid the development of lumps in the sauce.

If the instant flour is used in a baking project and is called for in a relatively large quantity, it is probably specified because of its protein content, and your best option would be cake or pastry flour.

in america its called wondra and you can get it anywhere. you can use all purpose flour or cake flour...just watch for the lumps
