Brown bread is healthy

  1. At the bakery you can choose daily from several types of bread. A large or a small loaf, round or long, white or brown, with various grains, etc. There are even different bread names, but which bread now contains the most dietary fiber?

Bread and special bread

  1. According to Belgian law there are two types of bread, namely "bread" and "special bread".

Flour or flour is the most important basic ingredient

  1. Flour or flour: obtained from ground cereal grains, such as wheat, rye, maize, barley, millet, spelled and oats. The most commonly used grain for the preparation of bread is wheat. Cereal grains are rich in: carbohydrates, proteins, vitamin B, vitamin E, minerals, flavonoids, indoles, and other bio-active substances.

The grain of wheat

  1. A grain of wheat is the seed of a plant and it consists of three parts: the flour body, the germ and the bran. Each portion contains different amounts of nutrients.

The difference between white and brown bread

  1. The color of the bread is not only determined by the type of grain, but also by the degree to which the grain has been ground. During the milling process, the flour body is stripped of the germ and the bran, then sieved and further ground, until the desired size is reached. The grinding degree is therefore the amount of flour that is left after grinding and sieving.

Bread that is enriched with malt flour

  1. Malt flour is made by germinating wheat and barley grains in a humid environment. Then they are roasted. During germination, the starch present is converted by enzymes into maltose, making the malt flour taste sweeter. Roasting stops this conversion and turns the flour brown. Bread enriched with malt flour is also browner in color, but it does not necessarily contain more fiber. The problem with brown bread is that you cannot tell whether this bread is baked from grain with a high extraction rate or whether it has been added with malt flour.

Wholemeal bread

  1. Wholemeal bread is made from flour with a high degree of extraction, so that the bread contains more fiber. According to scientific studies, whole grains are not only rich in fiber, but also contain protective ingredients.

  2. Wholemeal bread is made from flour with a high degree of extraction, which means that the bread contains more fiber. According to scientific studies, whole grains are not only rich in fiber, but also contain protective ingredients.
