The link between the intake of dietary fiber (DF) and health benefits has prompted the interest in fiberenriched foods such as fiber-enriched baked goods. A distinction is established between insoluble DF and soluble DF. Insoluble and soluble forms of DF have different compositions resulting in different of nutritional, physiological and technological properties. In this work, the effect of ins...

Yeasts isolated from a freshly tapped palm wine obtained from Akure, Nigeria were identified as Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Debaryomyces hansenii, Geotrichum lactis and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii. Each of the isolates was used to ferment wheat flour dough and baked. Sensory analysis of the doughs was carried out using leavening, texture, aroma, taste and appearance. Sacch...

abstract background: fresh bread has a short shelf life and by considering this matter, its acceptability by consumer dramatically would reduce by increasing the time between baking and consumption. use of frozen dough technology is one of solution for this problem. therefore in this current study the impact of freezing storage and pre-fermentation in sangak frozen dough and its bread was consi...

Relevant final product quality factors for chicken meat burgers after frying and during consumption are for instance shape, shrinkage and bite. These parameters are not only determined by meat composition but also by the different processing steps. The interacting effects of process conditions and meat composition are extremely important for defining the final product properties. In the present...

With rheology progress was made in understanding of structure of gels and colloidal suspensions, particularly with regard to polysaccharides and large glyconjugates. Whereas the rheology of concentrated dispersions is the considerable interest to the colloidal scientist, pharmacist or food technologist [1], of more interest to molecular biophysicist is dilute solution viscometry and the structu...

The formation of the large protein structure known as "gluten" during dough-mixing and bread-making processes is extremely complex. It has been established that a specific subset of the proteins comprising gluten, the glutenin subunits, directly affects dough formation and breadmaking quality. Glutenin subunits have no definitive structural differences that can be directly correlated to their a...

Chemical analysis Textural properties of dough prepared from the flours of eight sorghum cultivars were evaluated subjectively and also measured using a back-extrusion cell in an Ins&on Food Testing Instrument. The force and energy required for the extrusion of good quality cohesive dough were high. A poor quality dough was compressed into the cell without extrusion. The influence of flour-wate...

The effects of adding wheat and oat bran, at different levels and milled to varying particle size ranges, to dough formulations were investigated, with respect to aeration and dough development during mixing, expansion during proving and fi nal baked loaf characteristics. Addition of bran reduced the density of the dough at the end of mixing, largely because of the increased water absorption, w...
