Track III: Health-Driven Innovation: From Science to Consumer Trends
- Panel: Gut Health Insights from Science to Shelf - Johanne Hvelplund, Cocojune, Dr. Richard Day, ADM & final speaker TBA
- Malting Unleashed: Optimizing Germination to Craft Protein and Fiber Solutions for Healthier Ingredients - Dr. Jean-Charles Motte, Soufflet Malt
In this presentation, Soufflet Malt will explore how the industrial germination process known as malting can be optimized to create healthier ingredients. Traditionally highly optimized for the brewing market, malting can be redirected towards the ingredient markets to achieve differentiation through a simple and safe industrial process. Jean-Charles will discuss the available technical levers and demonstrate how, when applied to pulses, this process significantly enhances grains in terms of nutrition and application (such as cooking, flours, or beverages), improving both nutritional value and taste. Jean-Charles will also illustrate these possibilities with an ingredient that provides high protein and highly digestible fiber, along with significant functionality: malt rootlets crafted into an ingredient.
