| 摘要 |
A dried granular form of a whole grain leavening barm containing viable cells of a maltose-fermenting Lactobacillus and viable cells of a non-maltose-fermenting Saccharomyces has now been produced. The product of the drying process in preferred embodiments contains an admixture of Saccharomyces dairensis (ATCC 20782) and Lactobacillus brevis (ATCC 53295), whole grain flour, nonvolatile products of fermentation, and 5-12% water. Soybean oil containing the emulsifying agent lecithin and antioxidant tocopherols and malted whole grain flour are optional additives. The process of drying provided by this invention employs whole grain flour as a partial drying agent and also employs a sequential method for drying in which the microorganisms are supported on flour in the form of granules for the final warm air-drying stage. |
