What it is

Wheat gluten is the protein found in wheat. It is extracted from wheat flour by washing away the starch. It gives dough its elastic quality and helps it rise.

Why it's used

Wheat gluten is often added to baked goods like bread and buns to improve texture and increase volume. It's also used in processed meats and meat alternatives to provide a chewy, meat-like texture.

Health notes

Wheat gluten is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. For individuals without celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, consuming typical amounts of wheat gluten is not associated with adverse health effects. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated wheat gluten. Some individuals have celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which requires avoiding gluten.

Allergen info

Wheat gluten is derived from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity must avoid wheat.
