Lately, a few of them found themselves for full-scale trials…

SUBSTANTIVE WORK

2 years, the ambassadors of bread to test the qualitative evolution of bread, by the reduction in the kneading and the low seedings (yeast or leaven). They assess the implications and applications of these changes in nutrition.

It is in this context that on November 13 and 14, a few ambassadors of bread were gathered at the CFA of Saint-Michel – Mont – Mercure.

SURPRISING RESULTS

After a long fermentation at room temperature and a few minutes (in bright oven), first results have surprised more than one Professional. Taste, texture, color and volume… everything is there! Thanks to a significant reduction in the time of kneading, a drastic reduction in sowing and a sufficiently high fermentation temperature, natural enzymatic work of pure flour fully expressed before that microbial activities take over late score. Tests with flour T80, of integral flour, strength Camp Rémy, wheat flour (Pyreneo Allier), Sy harvest, Appache, without yeast, only after a reduced to the single frasage and with very low doses of sourdough mixture bring interesting prospects in terms of nutrition. Products completely enter a marketing process and meet the requirements of consumers. Of course professional gestures and experience complement the manufacturing of these breads. They allow to evaluate the ideal time to cast off, shape, bake…
