The present invention relates to a process for obtaining durum wheat oil starting from durum wheat. further obtaining a defatted meal and durum wheat lecithin. The invention further relates to a process for obtaining flour products of defatted durum wheat germ and defatted durum wheat bran starting from said defatted meal of durum wheat. The present invention relates to a process starting from the defatted meal of durum wheat for obtaining a natural sourdough and a dried natural sourdough therefrom. A further object of the invention are the thus obtained products: durum wheat oil, defatted meal and durum wheat lecithin, flour products of defatted durum wheat germ and defatted durum wheat bran, a natural sourdough, and a dried natural sourdough.

The invention relates to methods comprising the steps of producing a whole grain cereal flake product containing on a dry matter basis at least 4.0% (w/w) maltose and 1.0% (w/w) maltotriose comprising the steps of: a) providing a sprouted or malted (pseudo-)cereal of a non-peeled cereal, b) optionally adding sugar, c) incubating the composition of step a) or b) in moist conditions at a temperature for a time period allowing the enzymatic release of maltose and maltotriose from starch, d) further heating the incubated composition, e) flaking the heated composition, and f) drying the flaked composition.
