A taste of tradition
You can't beat the smell and taste of fresh baked bread, and bakery and confectionery ingredients supplier Puratos UK is hoping its new range will capture just that.
"O-tentic is a new active component derived from a natural fermentation process, that's designed to help manufacturers create a range of quality signature breads which deliver a traditional taste and aroma," says Bina Patel, category marketing manager of Puratos UK.
"O-tentic delivers all the benefits of a natural fermentation process - a full flavour, moist crumb, crunchy crust - but with none of the hassle," adds Patel.
The ingredient is well suited to long fermentation, as well as direct and retarded processing when used at 4% on flour weight.
Both the O-tentic Origin and O-tentic Durum variants contain natural dried ferments, ascorbic acid, enzymes and yeast.
