Abstract
Wine lees are a by-product that represents a 25% of the total winery waste. Although lees are rich in antioxidant compounds and dietary fiber, they have no added value and are considered a residue. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Cava lees (0 and 5% w/w) on microbial populations during sourdough and bread fermentation and the volatile fraction of the final bread. The results showed that 5% Cava lees promoted the growth of both lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeast in short fermentations (bread) but did not improve microbial growth in long fermentations (sourdough). Regarding volatile compounds, the addition of Cava lees increased the concentration of volatiles typically found in those products. Also, some compounds reported in sparkling wines were also identified in samples with Cava lees adsorbed on their surface. To sum up, the addition of Cava lees to sourdough and, especially, bread formulation may be a new strategy to revalorize such by-product.
