Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and wheat (Triticum sativum L.) were either sole cropped or intercropped in a complete design of five relative proportions and five density levels to determine the effects of interspecific interaction in an intercrop on wheat baking quality. It is shown how pea interspecific competitive ability for factors such as light and water results in an increase in wheat prot...

"Elasticity" in bakery is a sensory perception that is felt when the dough is rapidly stretched and released. Elasticity is good when the dough contracts rapidly to approximately its original shape. In another test the baker tries to stretch the dough into a thin membrane (Fig. 82). The formation of membranes with no fissures is attributed to good gluten quality 14 The Role of Gluten Elasticity...

Low phytic acid (LPA) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one approach to improving nutritional quality of wheat by reducing the major storage form of phosphorus and increasing the level of inorganic phosphorus, which is more readily absorbed by humans and other monogastric animals. Milling and baking quality evaluations were conducted on hard red, hard white, and soft white spring wheat grain from...

This leaflet provides a practical overview for producers and others involved in wheat production and storage, on what can be done at these steps to improve the quality and safety of organically produced wheat, in addition to certification and general food safety requirements. A separate leaflet covers the milling and baking steps, and other leaflets cover other commodities and separate leaflets...

background: today some bakeries for artificially production of bread in order to production process expedition and compensating defects that created by unnatural fermentation and as well as undesirable quality of flour. for cover superficial defects of bread use of harmful chemical material such as soda, that can cause health problems. the aim of this study is determination of soda and salt amo...

Study of the baking of biscuits involves among other aspects detailed analysis of colour changes in the product during the process. Previous study has shown the existence of a colour development curve (known as the baking curve) by examining colour development in the RGB and HSI colour spaces. In the current work a diierent approach to extracting the baking curve is presented. Using a Kohonen s...

A mixture of powdered compounds added to dough or cake mixture to make it rise in cooking. It is used as a substitute for yeast in bread-making. Baking powders consist of a source of carbon dioxide, such as sodium hydrogencarbonate or ammonium hydrogencarbonate, and an acidic substance such as calcium hydrogenphosphate, potassium hydrogentartrate (cream of tartar), or sodium hydrogenphosphate. ...
