October, 2016 – Join the Pulse Revolution!

As the saying goes, good things come in small packages.  As more manufacturers seek affordable, nutrient-dense ingredients to add to their formulations, many are turning to pulses as a solution.
At the recent IFT show, the Global Pulse Confederation announced a “Made with pulses,” seal – similar to the whole grains stamp seen on shelves today – is now available for packaged goods producers.  To qualify for this eye-catching seal, a packaged product must contain pulses in:
  • The top five ingredients by weight
  • A minimum of 5% of the final formulation.
Recognizing this ingredient’s potential, Firebird Artisan Mills has been working with pulses for nearly a decade. “Not only are pulses a good source of protein,” says Firebird’s Chris Krenzel, “they’re also high in antioxidants, an excellent source of fiber, and chock full of good things like iron and potassium.” According to the Global Pulse Confederation, one cup of cooked lentils contains 18 grams of protein, 1 gram of fat and 16 grams of fiber.
“Growers love pulses because they’re resilient and don’t need much in the way of fertilizer or irrigation. We love them because they’re mild-flavored, versatile and pack a nutritious punch. They work in everything from pasta and flour blends to  snack bars and cereals,” added Krenzel.
Please ask your Skidmore representative for a Firebird Artisan Mills product list or a sample of Firebird’s pulse flours or blends today.
