Wouldn't most supermarket bread flour by itself meet the definition of ultra-processed, because it is bleached and enriched with micronutrients in a way that almost no consumer can do in the kitchen?
- CarelessExpert 5y ago> because it is bleached and enriched with micronutrients in a way that almost no consumer can do in the kitchen? What gave you that idea? Bleached flour and various additives (such as ascorbic acid) are routinely used in home kitchens: https://thebreadguide.com/using-ascorbic-acid-when-baking/ https://thebreadguide.com/using-ascorbic-acid-when-baking/ What, exactly, do you think goes into making a loaf of mass-produced bread?
- legerdemain 5y agoThe bleaching is what makes the flour, and by extension the bread made from it, ultra-processed, even if the bread is baked in a home setting. You misread.
- CarelessExpert 5y agoYes, I 100% did misread! My bad!
