Stronger Gluten Wheat Produces Higher Quality Flour, Study Finds
The study analyzed different types of wheat flour with varying levels of gluten to see how they perform in baking. They used a machine called a farinograph to measure specific characteristics of the flour. The results showed that flour with stronger gluten absorbs more water and has a longer dough development time. On the other hand, flour with weaker gluten softens more quickly. This information can help bakers choose the right flour for their recipes based on gluten strength.
