3.1 What is PANATURA?

PANATURA® is a patented starter dough in dough-like or granulated form, which revitalises an almost forgotten technique of the baker's art with the possibilities and knowledge provided by modern technology.

Traditional dough production with wheat starter dough is being given new life as a natural, ready-made product. PANATURA® is a long-fermented wheat starter dough that is suitable for the production of all yeast-raised bakery goods such as baguettes, specialty breads, croissants and rolls, whether produced by automatic machinery or traditional craft. The results are bread and bakery products of the highest possible quality that can be produced efficiently and without the use of any chemical bread improvers. PANATURA® is suitable for all well known dough and bakery systems including delayed and interrupted fermentation methods, par- baking, refrigeration, and deep-freezing systems. PANATURA® starter dough can be added directly to the other raw materials during the production of the main dough.
