Metsoitiko Bread Bakery Mix 20% Premium Concentrate for Traditional Country-Style Bread. METSOVITIKO BREAD 20% is a specialized concentrate designed for bakeries that want to offer a country-style bread with consistent quality and a rich aromatic profile. With a usage rate of just 20%, it blends ideally with flour, simplifying the production process without taking away from the artisan’s identity.

It contains selected ingredients and dry sourdoughs that faithfully reproduce the deep, slightly tangy taste and aroma of traditional wood-fired oven bread. The final product stands out for its long shelf life, crumb texture, and its country-style, rustic appearance.

• Economical 20% Concentrate: Allows control of the final cost and the character of the bread.
• Authentic Sourdough Aroma: Gives the bread the deep flavor and aroma of long fermentation.
• Traditional Yellow Crumb: Provides a cohesive, firm yet elastic crumb structure.
• Crispy & Sturdy Crust: Ensures a thick, rustic crust that keeps the inside moist.
• Long Shelf Life: The bread retains its freshness and elasticity for days after baking.

Applications: Ideal for large country-style loaves or baguettes, breadsticks, snacks, and bread for platters and appetizers.
