Promoting nutraceutical flours from Tuscan Composite Cross Populations with enhanced baking quality and safety

or

Detail description

Nutrient-rich flours from Composite Cross Populations (CCP) grown in Tuscany show low gluten strength (W < 170) and high nutraceutical value. Analyses by the University of Florence confirm safe mycotoxin levels, including below 200 µg/kg for deoxynivalenol (DON), suitable for infant products. Stone-milled whole grain flours (85–100% extraction) preserve fibre and minerals, while optimised milling at Floridia and Molino Angeli improved dough behaviour and bakery outcomes. SOLIBAM population flours demonstrated superior baking performance, enabling reduced fat and aroma use. Tailored processing and consumer education are essential for successful use of these heterogeneous, high-nutrient flours.
