What type of white bread is the most frequent for you to consume? Both are often used as a breakfast menu. Even though both of them look like white bread, there are differences between them. Here are some differences between white bread and white bread:
- White bread is made from processed flour, wheat bread is made from high-fiber wheat flour
White bread is the most commonly known type of bread. This bread is made from flour whose outer skin and fiber from the cereal has been removed, as part of the flour milling process. This is the cause of the color of white bread which tends to be bright white. In contrast to white bread, wheat bread is a type of bread made using high-fiber flour ingredients, such as rye flour or whole wheat. This type of bread is brownish naturally obtained from the fibrous part of cereals that are deliberately not thrown away and used in the flour.
- The manufacturing process is different, including from the additional ingredients that are included
The white color of white bread is generally obtained from a grinding process that is quite long, the result will be more durable because the natural oil is also separated. In addition, chemicals are added such as benzyl peroxide, potassium bromide, and enriched vitamins and minerals through an artificial process. Some of them are sometimes given chemical coloring so that the color is brighter. In this way, the process of baking white bread can be more predictable because the color changes are clearly visible. Well, the process is different from the process of making whole wheat bread through natural processes and without adding other chemicals.
- White bread contains more calories than whole wheat bread
One white bread dessert has 175 calories. This value only applies when we only eat the bread without the addition of margarine, butter, jam or other sprinkles. Even white bread that has a taste like pandanus or chocolate. Of course the number of calories is more because it contains flavorings and added sugar. Meanwhile, one wheat bread dessert has 138 calories. It can be concluded that the calories of whole wheat bread are smaller than other types of bread, including white bread.
