Blending wheat flours creates versatile doughs for diverse baked goods.
The researchers blended different types of wheat flour with varying gluten strength to see how it affected the properties of the dough. They found that mixing strong wheat flour with weaker types decreased the protein content and changed the dough's characteristics. Blending weak wheat with strong wheat had the biggest impact on the dough's viscosity and temperature. Overall, combining different types of wheat flour can create flours with different dough properties suitable for various products.
