The increasing prevalence of coeliac disease (CD) and gluten-related disorders has led to increasing consumer demand for gluten-free products with quality characteristics similar to wheat bread. The replacement of gluten in cereal-based products remains a challenge for scientists, due to its unique role in network formation, which entraps air bubbles. When gluten is removed from a flour, starch...

Fennel seeds are a source of many nutrients, i.e. sugars, minerals, essential fatty acids, vital vitamins, protein and fibre. They are also rich in essential oil and many flavonoids. The sweet-flavoured fennel seeds are very popular worldwide and are extensively used in culinary and therapeutic fields. Bread fortified with fennel seed powder is thus likely to have higher consumer acceptability ...

The aims of the current work are in large part the benefit of rice straw to be used as adsorbent material and natural source of fiber in Fino bread. The rice straw was subjected to high temperature for modification process and the chemical composition was carried out and the native rice straw contained about 41.15% cellulose, 20.46% hemicellulose, and 3.91% lignin while modified rice straw has ...

Two fractions (50-K and permeate) from a proteolytic hydrolysate (degree of hydrolysis, DH=3.8 %) of wheat gluten were separated using ultrafiltration (UF) membrane with molecular mass cut-off of 50 kDa. The effects of the wheat gluten hydrolysate (WGH) and its UF fractions on the mixing behaviour and viscoelastic properties of wheat dough were presented. The WGH and its UF fractions modified t...

The food industry has responded to the American Heart Association’s overwhelming concerns about the complications of obesity with an array of fat reduced products that maintain the functionality of fat in given systems. In baked products, it appears that no one single ingredient effectively mimics these functions. The present study investigated the effect of liquid or dry honey as a partial rep...

The aim of this work was to monitor the changes both in the composition and in some sensory parameters of Colombian Arabica coffee brews stored at room and refrigeration temperatures, with and without oxygen. Some nonvolatile compounds related to the taste of coffee brews were determined, in an attempt to study possible relationships between chemical and sensory changes. Storage time hardly aff...

Implicit relevance feedback has proved to be a important resource in improving search accuracy and personalization. However, researchers who rely on feedback data for testing their algorithms or other personalization related problems are loomed with problems like unavailability of data, staling up of data and so on. Given these problems, we are motivated towards creating a synthetic user releva...

In recent years, with the awareness of people, interest in natural and functional foods has increased. Sourdough is a dough piece which industrial culture yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), endogenous yeasts, lactic acetic bacteria from air ingredients used (flour, water, etc.) are active. sourdough fermentation, yeast acid work together to form flora. It been proven by studies that breads prep...

introduction: low quality and short shelf-life are the most important reasons for bread waste. statistics show that each iranian person consumes about 150 kg bread annually, but the low quality of bread and public discontent, would resultin 30 percent waste of traditional breads. previously barley malt was used as an additive to improve the quality and shelf life of bread (including barbari bre...

introduction: sourdough is a very complex biological system and an important modern fermentation method of cereal flours and water. sourdough fermentation is based on lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation depending on the composition of micro flora and fermentation conditions. commercial sourdough processes do not rely on fortuitous flora but on the use of specific starter cultures. there has ...
