Flour: The Staple of the Commercial and Industrial Baking Industry
When we think about baking, what comes to mind is flour. Flour is an essential ingredient in baking, but it's not just critical to home bakers. The commercial and industrial baking industry relies heavily on this ingredient. Flour has fueled the bread-baking industry for centuries, and with the rise of commercial and industrial baking, it has become an even more valuable commodity.

Flour is a finely ground powder from various grains, such as wheat, rye, and barley. The commercial and industrial baking industry primarily uses wheat flour for making bread, cakes, and pastries. Flour also produces noodles, biscuits, crackers, and pizza crusts. The wheat flour used in commercial and industrial baking is high in protein because it provides the gluten that gives bread its elasticity and structure.

In ancient times, people ground grains manually using a stone mill to make flour. It was a laborious process that took a lot of effort and time. However, as civilization advanced, powered mills came into being, which simplified the process of flour making, making it more available and affordable.

With the rise of industrialization in the 19th century, wheat milling became more mechanized, and large mills were built to cater to the increasing demand for flour. The mills could process thousands of pounds of wheat daily, a significant development for the baking industry. Bread production became more efficient, and flour could be readily transported to other areas, enabling baking businesses to expand their reach.

In the modern era, commercial and industrial baking rely heavily on flour to meet the enormous demand for bread and other baked goods. The mills have become more sophisticated, utilizing state-of-the-art technology to increase the efficiency of the flour production process. The mills can now separate flour based on particle size, creating flours of different textures perfect for each baking application.

Moreover, wheat flour is now being fortified with crucial nutrients such as iron, folic acid, and vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B9. This move is an essential step towards reducing malnutrition in underdeveloped countries, which rely on wheat flour as a primary source of nutrition.

Flour is essential in the commercial and industrial baking industry. From ancient times to the modern era, it has fueled the bread-making industry, enabling businesses to grow their reach and meet the enormous demand for baked goods. With the advancement of technology, wheat milling has become more efficient, and the flour produced is of higher quality than ever before. As flour millers continue to innovate and improve their processes, the baking industry will benefit from this critical ingredient.
