    Why, when and how to use Vital Wheat Gluten?
    The high protein and excellent vitality of Vital Wheat Gluten makes it the protein of choice:
     
    1. in all bakery applications to boost the protein in flours, to create lighter breads by increasing the elasticity of your baked favourites. Professional bakers use Vital Wheat Gluten to create their wonderful baked goods.
     
    - Vital Wheat Gluten is added to low protein flour to boost the protein level which gives it sufficient strength for bread making. Wholewheat, wholemeal and rye flours have lower protein levels due to the high bran content in the flour. Recipes that contain lots of nuts, seeds or added bran can sever gluten strands so adding gluten is required. Bagel recipes have a high gluten content to create the chewiness.
     
     
    - Rough guide: boost the protein level of your flour by adding approximately -
         - 21g Vital Wheat Gluten to 500g of flour or
        - 1.5 tablespoon of Vital Wheat Gluten to 2 cups of flour.
        - Other cooking websites also indicate bewteen 1.0-1.5 tablespoons or 3-5 teaspoons Vital Wheat Gluten per 2 cups of flour. Read more below **.
     
    - More accurate guide: Most bread flours contain 12.5% protein. If your bread recipe requires 15% protein, though your flour only contains 12.5% protein (by viewing the nutritional information on the label), here is how to work out how much Vital Wheat Gluten to add to achieve 15% protein:
     
        - 12.5% protein = 12.5g protein per 100g in your flour
        - 15% protein = 15g protein per 100g required for the flour in your recipe
        - need an extra 2.5g protein (=15-12.5) per 100g of flour (which is 12.5g for 500g)
        - using 71% gluten flour, add 21g for 500g of boosted flour for your recipe
     
     
    So for 500g of flour needed for your recipe, you will need 21g of Vital Wheat Gluten/Protein @ 71% gluten added to 479g of your original flour to achieve approximately 15% protein in the final flour used for the recipe.
