Flat bread: traditional product from the Mediterranean area

The "Flatbread Mine" project, financed by PRIMA with European funds, is based on exploring new technologies, processing innovations and reformulations, which also include plant proteins, to develop healthy flatbreads for consumers in the Mediterranean region. Intermediate results of the project enabled the development of nutritionally improved flatbreads with the addition of 1) dry-fractionated pea protein concentrate; 2) oat and barley bran treated with an ultrasonic technique to reduce antinutrients; and 3) tocotrienol-rich oil extracted from durum wheat milling byproducts.
