Soy peroxidase enzyme obtained from isoelectic precipitation procedures was added to all-purpose flour (APF) to assess its effects on the rheological properties and consumer acceptability of yeast bread. A pH 4.8 isoelectrically precipitated fraction from soybeans was used because it produced the most precipitate and had about the same peroxidase activity as the other fractions. Gluten strength...

A consumer test of composite cassava: maize: wheat (40:10:50) breads prepared with improvers, 0.3% emulsifiers, either as lecithin (LC) or diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono-diglycerides (DATEM), and 3% hydrocolloids, either as high-methylated pectin (HM pectin) or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), was carried out in supermarkets in Mozambique. Overall acceptance and sensory attributes such as a...

Commercially available gluten free breads are of low quality and have a rapid staling during storage, therefore attempts were made to obtain gluten free bread of improved structure properties and extended shelf-life. For this purpose laboratory obtained bean starch, both native or hydrothermally modified, was added to a gluten free formulation. Texture results revealed differences between the b...

There is increasing emphasis on reformulating processed foods to make them healthier. This study for the first time comprehensively investigated the effects of fortifying bread (containing oil as an ingredient) with freeze-dried vegetables on its nutritional and physico-chemical attributes. Breads fortified with carrot, tomato, beetroot or broccoli were assessed for nutrition, antioxidant poten...

Analysis of gene expression in developing wheat seeds was used to identify a gene, wheat bread making (wbm), with highly differential expression (~1000 fold) in the starchy endosperm of genotypes varying in bread making quality. Several alleles differing in the 5'-upstream region (promoter) of this gene were identified, with one present only in genotypes with high levels of wbm expression. RNA-...

Composition of second-grade dates from the potential Tunisian cultivars “Deglet Nour” was similar to that of commercial dates. In fact, date flesh could present a value addition by extraction and use of date flesh fiber concentrate in bread formulation. Date flesh fiber concentrate (DFFC) of Deglet Nour variety was extracted and dried at 40 °C. This concentrate was added to wheat flour bread at...

Ozonation of wheat grain is a quick and easy process that could be realized during the storage. The ozone is in direct contact with the grain and modifies immediately the properties of the wheat. Stability and resistance of dough were increased with ozonation at 40 ppm in comparative with control sample. The results showed a gradual increase in specific volume of balady bread according to the t...

introduction: bread stales and unfortunately it is a certainty and causes significant product waste all over the world.staling results in loss of important sensory parameters of bread, like flavor and texture, and it is a consequence of a group of several physical–chemical changes occurring during bread storage that lead mainly to an increase of crumb firmness and loss of freshness (gray and be...

chapatti is high consuming bread in the southeast countries of asia that in fresh form has a tender texture but within a few days of storage, becomes inflexible. in this research, the effects of guar and cmc gums at two levels of 0.25 and 0.5% on quality of chapatti bread were investigated. based on results, gum addition in different levels increased moisture and ash contends and improved rheol...

BACKGROUND The mechanism behind the lowered postprandial insulin demand observed after rye bread intake compared to wheat bread is unknown. The aim of this study was to use the metabolomics approach to identify potential metabolites related to amino acid metabolism involved in this mechanism. METHODS A sourdough fermented endosperm rye bread (RB) and a standard white wheat bread (WB) as a ref...
