Resumo(s)
Besides water, maize and rye flour are the main constituents of broa – a unique sourdough bread, manufactured following traditional protocols at the farm level in Portugal. Mother‐dough, i.e., a piece of leavened dough kept aside from batch to batch under refrigeration conditions, constitutes the only starter culture used throughout breadmaking. Maize and rye flour, as well as mother‐dough, were accordingly assayed for their microbiological profiles throughout storage time, to characterize the evolution in viability of the adventitious microorganisms: total viable counts, as well as viable yeasts, molds, gram‐negative rods, gram‐positive rods (endospore‐forming and nonsporing) and gram‐positive cocci (catalase+ and catalase−). In general, all microbial groups exhibited an outstanding resistance to storage, so use of mother‐dough appears technologically effective in this form of breadmaking, and an appropriate storage of flour does not convey any important changes to their microbiological profile.
