Vital Wheat Gluten Flour and the Gluten Free Diet
Vital wheat gluten flour is a type of flour that is made by hydrating wheat flour to activate the gluten, which is then processed to remove everything but the gluten. The final product is a powder that is almost entirely gluten, with minimal starch content. This ingredient is commonly used to improve the texture and elasticity of doughs, making it particularly popular in bread-making and the production of vegan meat substitutes, such as seitan.
