Abstract: Bread and similar wheat flour-based products are provided which exhibit reduced toughness when subjected to microwave heating. The products are prepared from wheat flour-based, leavened doughs which have adjusted gliadin:glutenin ratios of from about 1.1-2.3, such ratio adjustment is preferably accomplished by the addition of a gliadin-rich preparation into the starting doughs, typically at levels of from about 1-6% (fwb).

Abstract: A process for high pressure embossing a single ply of paper and the paper produced thereby. The embossing process requires two rolls, a pattern roll 30 and an anvil roll 32. The rolls are loaded together at a pressure of at least 1000 psi at the nip. A single ply of paper is embossed in the nip. The embossments of the paper do not extend outwardly beyond the thickness of the paper to have any out-of-plane deformation. The embossments are typically glassined. The resulting paper has an aesthetically pleasing appearance, without undue loss of tensile strength from the embossing process.
