  • Method for heat treating a bread baking wheat flour and resulting flour and dough
    Patent number: 5433966
    Abstract: Wheat flour is heat treated by suspending it in a heated carrier gas having an outlet temperature of 50.degree.-130.degree. C. for 5-8 seconds to increase dough strength of the flour and to dry the flour to a moisture content of less than 7 wt %. Bread dough made with the heat treated flour exhibits improved baking characteristics with reduced requirements for chemical oxidizing agents, and this flour is therefore useful when eliminating potassium bromate from formulations. The heat treated flour makes an improved bread mix with an increased shelf life.
