Heat Treated Flour – Countess Flour
Countess is a specially produced heat-treated, inactivated flour designed for use as an effective thickening ingredient in a wide range of food applications. The heat treatment process alters the functional properties of the flour, allowing it to hydrate quickly and deliver a smooth, consistent texture when used in soups, gravies, sauces, and similar products. This process also reduces enzymatic activity, helping to improve product stability and maintain a uniform viscosity during preparation and cooking.
In addition to its performance as a thickener, Countess flour is also well suited for bakery applications. When blended with GD flour, it helps create pastry and wafer-type products with a shorter, more delicate eating texture. This makes it particularly valuable in formulations where a crisp, tender bite and controlled structure are desired.
Countess provides manufacturers and bakers with a versatile ingredient that enhances texture, improves processing performance, and contributes to reliable, high-quality finished products across both savoury and baked applications. Its consistent performance and adaptability make it an excellent choice for professional food production where dependable functionality and quality are essential in both small-scale and large-scale manufacturing environments.
