Base Blend Porridge (gluten)

Learning Objective

Diversity Porridges are meticulously designed to provide an array of health benefits by combining a diverse range of fibres, antioxidants, and gut-friendly microbes from various grains. These porridges have the potential to revolutionise public health, the bread industry, and sustainability initiatives, making them an invaluable addition to our diets and the global food system.

Learning Outcome

Diversity Porridges offer versatility in bread manufacturing, allowing them to be easily incorporated into the Chorley Wood bread-making process. Using them as a live product or cooked after fermenting provides flexibility in storage and application, making them suitable for large-scale bread production. By incorporating our porridges into their product lines, companies like Puratos can help revolutionise the bread industry by offering nutrient-rich, gut-friendly, and sustainable bread products. These porridges are designed to maximise the potential of gut health and its impact on overall well-being.
