OBJECTIVE To investigate dietary and non-dietary characteristics of wholegrain bread eaters in the Norwegian Women and Cancer study. DESIGN Cross-sectional study using an FFQ. SETTING Women were divided into two groups according to wholegrain bread consumption. SUBJECTS Adult women (n 69 471). RESULTS Median daily consumption of standardized slices of wholegrain bread was 2·5 in the low...

Wheat ( L.) cultivars must possess suitable end-use quality for release and consumer acceptability. However, breeding for quality traits is often considered a secondary target relative to yield largely because of amount of seed needed and expense. Without testing and selection, many undesirable materials are advanced, expending additional resources. Here, we develop and validate whole-genome pr...

Fermented grains of buckwheat, oat, embryo rice and wheat, which were prepared by solid-state fermentation with Antrodia salmonea, and the mycelium was used to substitute 7% of wheat flour to make bread. No difference in proximate composition, texture profile and contents of non-volatile taste components was observed among bread samples. White bread and bread supplemented with mycelium and ferm...

The effect of germination conditions on the nutritional benefits of germinated brown rice flour (GBR) bread has been determined. The proximate composition, phytic acid, in vitro protein digestibility and in vitro enzymatic hydrolysis of starch, glucose and starch content, as well as the most relevant bioactive compounds (GABA, γ-oryzanol and total phenolic compounds) and antioxidant activity of...

In this study, the incorporation of leek in wheat bread was explored. Green leaves were dried with two techniques to obtain powder after milling. The air-dried and freeze-dried powders incorporated into flour at five substitution levels (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 2 g/100 g). impact on dough rheology, quality, sensory evaluation mould-free shelf-life investigated. Leek negatively impacted mixing properties...

BACKGROUND Protein quantity in diet including the digestibility and bioavailability of protein is of importance to eradicate undernutrition in developing countries. Bread protein is an incomplete source as it lacks an essential amino acid lysine. When they are combined with other plant foods like pulses and legumes, they become a complete source of protein. Since bread is most common staple foo...
