Corn, grain sorghum and millet premix and method of preparing same

摘要

A method is provided for producing chemically leavened doughs or batters and premixes therefor which yield organoleptically acceptable baked or fried products notwithstanding use of pretreated corn, grain sorghum, and/or millet flour in the doughs or batters in lieu of a substantial portion of the wheat floor normally used therein. The preferred method includes the steps of hydrating milled corn, grain sorghum and/or millet with water to provide a homogeneous mixture thereof, followed by drying and the addition of a minor amount of unrefined lecithin thereto to form a premix which is incorporated into a chemically leavened dough or batter formulation as a substitute for at least a portion of the wheat flour usually employed therein.
