[Monoglyceride supply and sales] Glyceryl monostearate plays these roles in the bread making process

Glyceryl monostearate appears as white waxy flakes or solid beads , insoluble in water, can be dispersed in water by strong shaking with hot water, and is a water-in-oil emulsifier. Soluble in hot organic solvents ethanol, benzene, acetone, mineral oil and fixed oil. The freezing point is not lower than 54℃. According to the supply of glyceryl monostearate: glyceryl monostearate is widely used, especially in the food field. Glyceryl monostearate is often added in the bread making process.

Adding glyceryl monostearate during the bread making process has the following advantages:

1. It can improve the volume, uniformity and structure of the bread. , make the pores in the bread fine and even, increase the volume, make the texture fine and soft, whiten the color, and taste better;

2. Improve the elasticity and slicing performance of the bread, and reduce “balling” and “dregs” ”;

3. Extend the storage period of bread, effectively prevent dryness, hardness, mildew, stringiness and stickiness of bread. It has significant anti-aging effect and can extend the storage period by 0.6 on average. -1 times more.

Small guide: The common addition amount of glyceryl monostearate is 0.1%~0.5% of the flour weight.
