Cultured wheat is popularly used as a natural preservative in food. Cultured wheat is produced by the fermentation of wheat flour with bacteria called Propionibacterium freudenreichii. This bacteria is normally found in dairy products and milk which plays a vital role in food preservation.
Cultured wheat is a strong preservative that helps in increasing the shelf life of the bakery and confectionary product. Cultured wheat can also enhance the flavor property of the bakery products. Cultured wheat restricts the growth of unnecessary yeasts, bacteria, and molds. Other important benefits of using cultured wheat are that it does not compromise with taste, aroma, and texture of the end product.
