First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 - 26 . (canceled) 27 . A packaged raw dough product comprising a dough composition in a package, the dough composition comprising: from 30 to 70 weight percent flour component based on total weight dough composition, the flour component containing less than 5 weight percent damaged starch, based on total starch in the flour component, and active maltose negative yeast in an amount in a range from 0.1 to 5 weight percent based on total weight dough composition and on a dry yeast basis, wherein the raw dough exhibits carbohydrase enzyme activity below 20 Beta amyl-3 U/g, and has a raw specific volume in a range from 0.75 to 0.95 cubic centimeters per gram when placed in the package, wherein the raw specific volume of the dough does not exceed 1.3 cubic centimeters per gram during 30 days of refrigerated storage at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. 28 . The packaged raw dough product of claim 27 wherein the flour component comprises: from 0 to 85 weight percent flour based on total flour component, and from 15 to 100 weight percent composite flour based on total flour component, the composite flour comprising: isolated starch ingredient, and isolated protein ingredient. 29 . The packaged dough product of claim 28 wherein the flour component comprises: from 5 to 80 weight percent flour based on total flour component, and from 20 to 95 weight percent composite flour based on total flour component. 30 . The packaged dough product of claim 28 wherein the isolated starch ingredient contains less than 5 weight percent damaged starch, based on total weight starch isolated starch ingredient. 31 . The packaged dough product of claim 28 wherein the composite flour exhibits amylase activity below 36 Beta amyl-3 U/g. 32 . The packaged dough product of claim 28 wherein after 30 days of refrigerated storage at 40 degrees Fahrenheit, the dough can be removed from the package and baked without proofing to a baked specific volume that is in a range from 1.5 to 2.2 times the raw specific volume of the dough when removed from the package. 33 . A packaged dough product of claim 27 wherein the package is vented, non-pressurized, and includes headspace having a volume that is at least 50 percent of the volume of the dough. 34 . A packaged dough product of claim 27 wherein the dough has a carbon dioxide release rate of not greater than 0.13 cubic centimeters per gram per day, measured at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. 35 . A raw dough composition packaged in a vented, non-pressurized package including a headspace having a volume that is at least 50 percent of the volume of the raw dough composition, the raw dough composition comprising: from 30 to 70 weight percent flour component based on total weight dough composition, the flour component comprising: from 0 to 80 weight percent flour based on total flour component, and from 15 to 100 weight percent composite flour based on total flour component, the composite flour comprising: isolated starch ingredient, and isolated protein ingredient, and active maltose negative yeast in an amount in a range from 0.1 to 5 weight percent based on total dough composition, wherein the raw dough exhibits carbohydrase enzyme activity below 20 Beta amyl-3 U/g, and has a raw specific volume in a range from 0.75 to 0.95 cubic centimeters per gram when placed in the package, wherein the raw specific volume of the dough does not exceed 1.3 cubic centimeters per gram during 30 days of refrigerated storage at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. 36 . The composition of claim 35 wherein the flour component comprises from 5 to 80 weight percent flour and from 20 to 95 weight percent composite flour, and wherein the flour component exhibits amylase activity below 36 Beta amyl-3 U/g. 37 . The composition of claim 36 wherein the flour component exhibits amylase activity below 36 Beta amyl-3 U/g. 38 . The composition of claim 36 wherein the isolated starch ingredient comprises less than 5 weight percent damaged starch, based on total weight isolated starch ingredient. 39 . The composition of claim 35 wherein the dough does not expand more than 1 cc/gram during refrigerated storage of 40 degrees Fahrenheit for a period of at least 30 days, after the dough is prepared. 40 . The composition of claim 36 wherein the composite flour comprises: from 60 to 95 weight percent isolated starch ingredient, and from 5 to 40 weight percent isolated protein ingredient, based on total weight isolated starch ingredient and isolated protein ingredient. 41 . The composition of any of claim 36 comprising from 0.1 to 4 weight percent maltose based on total weight dough composition. 42 . The composition of claim 36 wherein the dough has a carbon dioxide release rate of not greater than 0.13 cubic centimeters per gram per day, measured at 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
