Application of water-honey extract of St. John’s wort herb to improve biotechnological and rheological properties of wheat dough

Experimental studies of the effect of water-honey extract of St. John's wort grass fermented by lactic acid bacteria Str.lactis and Str.cremoris on microorganisms causing microbiological deterioration of wheat flour bakery products showed a positive effect of the introduced component on the rheological and biotechnological parameters of wheat dough. By adding additional nutrients that activate the vital activity of the fermenting microflora, the gas-forming ability of the dough increased by 20%, the fermentation activity improved by 35%, and the desired dough acidity of 3.0 deg. was reached within 120 minutes, i.e. the fermentation process reduced by 60 minutes.
