ABSTRACT: Barbari is traditional flat leavened Iranian bread and one of the most popular breads consumed in Iran. Barbari bread stales quite fast and its shelf life is very short. Therefore, the addition of bread improvers and anti-staling agents, such as aloe vera, is a suitable method for extending the shelf life of the bread. In the present study, the effect of aloe vera powder at 0, 1, 3, 6...

a suitable option for manufacture of packing materials is the use of clay and silver nano particles. these materials help create optimal relative impermeable quality, in addition to other features being improved. moisture-packed bread by use of these materials prevent water vapor loss and therefore reduce the level of bread becoming stale. in this study, seven types of nano-films with different...

Iranian bread production methods are often unsanitary, in the last decades, different attempts were made to mechanize production of Iranian breads, but a few of them, due to a variety of factors, could succeed. The aim of this study is to examine various factors affecting the system of bread production in Iran and to provide effective solutions for the development of mechanized bakeries as the ...

The objective of this study was to determine bread slice medium part properties in relation to quality parameters with a focus on gluten strength. Since sensory evaluation of bread is time consuming, expensive and subjective in nature, computerized image analysis was applied as objective method of bread crumb quality evaluation. Gluten Index method was applied as fast and reliable tool for defi...

Bread is one of the most popular bakery products, generally made from refined wheat flour which is limiting in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and dietary fibre. Therefore, in the present study, wheat flour was supplemented with Spirulina powder at 2, 4, 6 and 8% levels to improve its nutritional quality. Developed enriched breads were found organoleptically acceptable by the panelists up to 6...

Aims In bakery products, quality attributes of the crust such as crispy texture and colour and of the crumb as softness and springiness are important attributes for consumer’s perception. These attributes mainly set up during the baking stage and are influenced by the baking conditions (oven temperature, steam injection...). Many physical and chemical changes occur to lead to a porous structure...

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...
