FEATURED SPECIAL ISSUES

3rd International Symposium on Sourdough
Food Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 2, 2007

Sourdough has been, is, and probably will be more and more the unique traditional starter to obtain otherwise irreproducible quality of leavened bakery products. Adaptation of traditional technologies, setting up of emerging fermentation technologies and delivering of new starter cultures represent the tools to satisfy industrial and consumer demands, and to move from “Tradition to Innovation”.

INTRADFOODS - Innovations in Traditional Foods (EFFoST 2005)
Trends in Food Science and Technology, Volume 17, Issue 9, 2006

A wide range of traditional foods are produced daily all over Europe. These foods are typically produced and consumed in certain local areas where they have great acceptance due to their characteristic colour, flavour and texture. Some of the technologies involved still rely on traditional manufacturing practices with low competitiveness and poor efficiency. Innovations are long overdue in most of the processes currently employed.
