The global market for pizza and flatbread is indeed experiencing significant growth, with projections indicating substantial increases by 2030. The rising consumer demand for diverse and healthier baked products, including regional pizza styles and traditional flatbreads, is driving this expansion. Thymly Products is positioned to help customers with create the best ingredient solution for any pizza and flatbread.
Importance of Ingredients in Baking:
Essential ingredients like flour, water, fat, and sugar play crucial roles in baking pizza and flatbreads. Flour provides the structural foundation, with its protein content influencing dough elasticity and texture. Water acts as a binding agent, facilitating gluten formation and contributing to the dough’s cohesiveness during baking. The hardness of water can also impact the dough’s texture and final product quality.
Fat, even in small amounts, significantly affects the flavor and texture of baked goods. Different types of oil, such as canola versus virgin olive oil, can yield distinct differences in the final product. Sugar, primarily used to feed yeast, also aids in browning and enhancing flavors.
Enhancing Dough Quality:
Thymly Product’s goal is to improve the dough quality through enzymes. A 24-hour bulk refrigerated fermentation enhances dough extensibility and texture by allowing protease enzymes to break down proteins.
This comprehensive approach to baking and sanitation reflects the evolving demands and technological advancements in the bakery industry, catering to consumer preferences and operational efficiencies.
