Vital wheat gluten 82% is a high-value source of plant-based proteins. The enormous elasticity of the gluten makes it an excellent binder for end products (e.g. dough). The wheat gluten is activated by a wet process, allowing it to be separated from the starch component. The wheat gluten is then dried again and grinded. This results in a protein-rich, cream-coloured fine powder with a characteristic flavour and neutral aroma.
Vital wheat gluten 82% is a valuable plant-based source of proteins that is commonly used in feeds for young animals, such as calves and piglets, as well as fish. It is also ideal for functional applications, such as improving the elasticity of dough and the texture and chewiness of foods.
