Application / Method

SAPORE OTHELLO is produced under controlled conditions and using a culture of selected sourdough micro-organisms.

The fermented product is dried in such a way as to develop caramelization and Maillard reactions during the process. As a

consequence, the flavour of the end product is richer: malty, toasted sourdough flavours.

Depending on the level of addition, SAPORE OTHELLO can perform various functions which range from slight flavour "lifting" in white

or whole grain loaves up to full-flavour, no-time rye bread production.

At 0,5 - 1 % on flour weight, a flavour rounding will be obtained without a detectable sourdough-type profile.

At 1,5 - 2 % addition, the acidity and flavour become perceptible whilst not dominating the overall taste.

Typical applications are Ciabatta, old fashioned baguettes, pizza, multi cereal breads, dark breads…

A further application is to compensate the loss of flavour in parbaked and frozen goods.

From 4 % up (on the rye flour), SAPORE OTHELLO can be used to produce rye breads with a straight dough process.
