DeIorio’s and Upcycled Foods recently announced the launch of DeIorio’s ReGrained SuperGrain Upcycled Flour Dough Ball.
The dough ball was showcased at the International Pizza Expo in March 2024. It is a fortified pizza dough ball with added plant protein and fiber that the companies claim add flavor and sustainability to the menu.
“ReGrained SuperGrain unearths the nutritional treasure from grains that are overlooked—every time a beer is brewed—to create an upcycled hero ingredient that delivers a minimum of 3.5 times the dietary fiber and two times the plant protein of whole grain and white flours on a pound for pound basis,” a press release from the companies said. “When formulated into products, SuperGrain increases nutrient density while decreasing carbon footprint and improving water efficiency.”
