Why is it important?

Gluten-free bread and bakery products are gaining importance due to the avareness of gluten-sensitivity or celiac disease diagnosed patients. However technological properties of gluten-free products are not comparable in quality as well as taste, therefore novel formulations are studied for improving the quality and sensory properties.

Perspectives

Rheological properties of gluten-free batter formulations based on quinoa and buckwheat flour was studied in this research. Also microstructural properties of flours and produced breads were discussed in details.
