Thai indigenous brown rice flours from Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand, namely Khai Mod Rin (KMRF) and Noui Khuea (NKRF), were assessed for quality aspects in comparison with brown Jasmine rice flour (JMRF) and commercial rice flour (CMRF) from Chai Nat 1 variety. All the rice flours had different chemical composition, physical characteristic, and techno-functionality. The KMRF, NKRF, and JMRF were classified as a low amylose type (19.56–21.25% dw). All rice flours had low total extractable phenolic content (0.1–0.3 mg GAE/g dw) with some DPPH● scavenging activity (38.87–46.77%). The variations in the bulk density (1.36–1.83 g/cm3), water absorption capacity (0.71–1.17 g/g), solubility (6.93–13.67%), oil absorption capacity (1.39–2.49 g/g), and swelling power (5.71–6.84 g/g) were noticeable. The least gelation concentration ranged from 4.0 to 8.0% where KMRF was easier to form gel than JMRF, and NKRF/CMRF. The foam capacity of the flours was relatively low (1.30–2.60%). The pasting properties differed among rice flours and the lowest pasting temperature was observed in CMRF. Overall, the chemical, physical, functional, and pasting qualities of flours were substantially influenced by rice variety. The findings offered fundamental information on Thai indigenous rice flour that can be used in food preparations for specific uses.

Taro tubers locally known as Semir are potentially used as a source of starch. Taro Semir starch can be used as a substitute of rice flour in the raw material of rice vermicelli. However, native taro starch has not been optimally utilized due to poor functional and poor pasting properties. Thus, further treatment is needed to improve their properties. The ideal characteristics of starch as a raw material of vermicelli are low swelling volume, stable against heating and stirring, and fast-rising value of setback viscosity. The aim of this research was to determine a suitable physical modification to produce functional and pasting properties of taro Semir starch. The physical modifications were applied in preparing taro Semir starch includes Heat Moisture Treatment (HMT) at 110°C for 8 hours, Heat Pressure Treatment (HPT) at 120°C 1 hour, Microwave Heat/Moisture Treatment (MWT) with 100W 20 minutes, and Osmotic Pressure Treatment (OPT) at 120°C 30 minutes. Those modified taro Semir starch were compared with the native taro Semir starch. Taro Semir starch modified by HMT revealed with the best performance compared to others modification. The obtained characteristic of this starch were swelling volume of 6.57±0.80 mL/g, solubility of 5.80±0.29 %, water absorption capacity of 2.59±0.09 g/g, gel strength of 3,518±0.17 gF, syneresis percentage of 5.39±2.31 %, pasting temperature of 83.65±0.77°C, peak viscosity 4,349.17±192.61 cP, breakdown viscosity 494±33.81 cP, and setback viscosity of 2,413±165.85 cP. It was concluded that HMT at 110°C for 8 hours considered as the best method of modification for the Taro Semir starch.

Chin-Chin, a traditional Nigerian snack was prepared utilizing wheat-fermented maize residue composite flour at 0 – 30% replacement levels. Effects of this addition on the functional and pasting properties of the flour composite was evaluated. The snack produced was also evaluated for its sensory attributes, proximate composition and invitro-protein digestibility (IVPD). Functional properties results showed an increase in water absorption capacity (WAC), a decrease in oil absorption capacity (OAC), decrease in Bulk Density (BD), swelling power and solubility index with residue addition. Pasting property results showed a drop in the value of peak, trough, breakdown and final viscosity with substitution while set back viscosity increased.Peak temperature decreased, but values for pasting temperature showed no significant difference between the control and the blends. Results for sensory evaluation showed equal preference for overall acceptability. Proximate composition results showed residue addition led to an increase in crude fibre and protein content with a drop in the carbohydrate value. Residue addition did not increase protein digestibility. Addition of fermented maize residue in chin-chin production can be another way of utilizing the fibre rich by-product of the production of fermented maize starch.

Abstract Pupuru and pupuru analogues are fermented, smoked food products usually produced from cassava or cassava substituted with a varying ratio of breadfruit. This study aims at determining and comparing the functional and pasting characteristics of pupuru and pupuru analogues with a view to expanding the utilization of breadfruit as pupuru analogue. The functional properties (water absorption capacity (%), swelling power (g/g), solubility (%)) and pasting characteristics were determined using standard methods. The results showed that the yield of the products ranged between 24.66 and 29.65%, and it was not affected by the amount of breadfruit substituted. The water absorption capacities of the pupuru and pupuru analogues ranged between 216.0 and 449.0%; this parameter increased with temperature increase. Both swelling power and solubility had a rapid increase from 80 °C to 90 °C. Pasting temperature ranged between 73.15 and 83.66 °C, with peak time between 4.58 and 5.33 min. The final viscosity ranged between 94.08 and 391.83 RVU, and it decreased with increase in breadfruit substitution. The study concluded that adding breadfruit to cassava in pupuru analogue production improved some of the functional and pasting properties of the product.

The paper considers how gluten-free flours, in particular, those made from coconuts and brown rice, can be used in  the  technology of gluten-free chocolate muffins in order to expand the  range of special purpose products. Studies by domestic and foreign authors dedicated to using different flour types in today’s gluten-free technologies have been analysed. It has been proved that wheat  flour  can be fully replaced with gluten-free flour mixtures in the recipe of chocolate muffins. Analysis of the chemical composition of  coconut flour has shown its higher fat content, compared with wheat flour, and twice as much protein and dietary fibre (18%). Coconut flour exceeds wheat flour not only in the main macronutrients, but also in the content of the main minerals. Brown rice flour, too, contains more fats and vitamins of the B-group than wheat flour does, and is a source of sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, and sulphur. It contains up to 80% of starch and, like coconut flour, is gluten-free. Replacing wheat flour in the classical muffin recipe with mixtures of coconut and brown rice flours in the ratios 30:70, 40:60, and 50:50 reduces the moisture content and density of the dough. The moisture content in the finished muffins, too, is lower by 0.7, 1.2, and 1.5% respectively. It has been confirmed that if the gluten-free flour mixture contains over 50% of coconut flour, it reduces the specific volume of resulting muffins and worsens their quality parameters. The Harrington method was used to estimate the comprehensive quality index of the chocolate muffins. This has shown that full substitution of wheat flour for a mixture of gluten- free flours in the ratio 40:60 (coconut flour:brown rice flour) allows achieving the best-balanced sensory characteristics. Gluten-free muffins have a pleasant brown colour of the crust, their crumb is quite soft, homogeneous, and porous, with a balanced taste and an aroma of cocoa combined with light coconut notes.

Orange Fleshed Sweet Potato

Successful use of non-wheat flours for snacks production depends on their functional and pasting properties. The use of orange fleshed sweet potato and red Bambara groundnut flour blends for snack production have not been explored. The objective of this work was to formulate flour blends using orange fleshed sweet potato and red Bambara groundnut and to evaluate their proximate compositions and processing properties for possible application in the production of high protein and pro-vitamin A enriched  snacks for consumers especially children in developing countries. Flour blends were formulated in ratio 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, 30:70 (orange fleshed sweet potato to red bambara groundnut). The protein and fat increased from 12.95±0.05% (60:40) to 16.87±0.02% (30:70) and 2.17±0.03% (60:40) to 3.05±0.04% (30:70) respectively. Ash and carbohydrate decreased from 2.52±0.04% (60:40) to 2.27±0.05% (30:70) and 60.38±0.44% (30:70) to 69.09±0.30% (60:40). The water absorption capacities for the flour blends ranged between 28.03±0.17% and 50.40±0.40%. Oil absorption capacity was between 16.70±0.12% and 31.40±0.13%. Swelling capacities was highest in 30:70 (2.48±0.06%) and lowest in 60:40 (2.13±0.07%). Solubility was between 9.27±0.59% and 11.67±0.70%. Bulk density ranged between 0.77±0.01 g/ml and 0.87±0.02 g/ ml. Peak, breakdown, setback and final viscosities increased from 92.88±3.47 to109.34±0.23; 20.33±3.66 to 21.75±1.17; 32.16±0.84 to 44.59±0.25 and 102.71±1.00 to 132.00±1.06 RVU respectively. This study indicate that the 50% sweet potato and 50% red bambara groundnut flour blend will make a better product judging from its functional and pasting properties compared to other blends but will require a little more energy to cook comparing their pasting temperature and time.

The effect of processing methods on the physicochemical, functional, anti-nutrient factors and pasting properties of Mucuna sloanei (ukpo), Brachystegia eurycoma (achi) and Daterium microcarpum (ofor) were assessed using standard methods. Flour from these seeds were produced after boiling and soaking at different time intervals.  The moisture and ash contents of the three soup thickeners ranged between 5.58- 8.92% and 1.14-5.59% with sample B1 (achi boiled for 15 min) and C4 (ofor soaked for 48 h) having the lowest while sample B2 (achi boiled for 30 min) and C1 (ofor boiled for 15 min) having the highest. Crude Fat and fibre contents ranged from 2.90-10.95% and 1.30-14.39% with samples C1 and A1 (ukpo boiled for 15 min) as the highest respectively. Crude protein and carbohydrate contents of soup thickeners ranged between 9.19 -21.31% and 45.01-71.38% with samples A3 (ukpo soaked for 24 h) and B4 (achi soaked for 48 h) as the highest. Sugar and starch contents ranged from 2.61-5.04% and from 69.00-74.27% respectively with sample C4 and A4 (ukpo soaked for 48 h) as the lowest and sample A3 and B3 (Achi soaked for 24 h) as the highest. Amylose content increased with boiling and decreased with soaking which was the reverse amylopectin. Functional properties showed bulk density and dispersibility to range between 0.56-0.76 g/ml and 32.50-48-00% with sample B3 (achi soaked for 24 h) as highest in both cases. Solubility and swelling power ranged from 32.56-107.51% and from 4.61-8.72 g/g with sample A2 (ukpo boiled for 30 min) and A1 having the highest respectively. Foam capacity ranged from 2.50-29.50% with sample C2 (ofor soaked for 48 h) having the lowest and sample A1 having the highest, while the least gelation concentration of the three soup thickeners recorded 2.00% for all the treatments. Water absorption capacity ranged between 0.67-10.46 ml/g with B1 having the lowest and sample C2 having the highest. Antinutritional factors showed that phytate recorded 0.01 g/kg for all the treatments, tannin ranged from 2.22-40.71 mg/kg, oxalate between 3.40-7.90mg/100g and saponin between 2.60-9.18% with different treatments affecting the antinutrients. Free fatty acid, peroxide value, saponification and acid values increased with an increase in treatment time while iodine value decreased as processing time increased. Pasting result showed that treatment and time affected pasting properties with the highest values as peak viscosity 16429RVU, trough viscosity 9231RVU, breakdown 7858RVU, final viscosity 19977RVU and set back viscosity 13004RVU respectively. Peak time and pasting temperature ranged between 1.60-6.10 min and between 50.25-76.18°C for the different treatments. This study shows the need for appropriate treatment and time combination for better nutrient availability and detoxification of these seeds as soup thickeners.

Roasting temperature and time are important parameters in the process of roasted germinated brown rice flour (RGBRF), which cause the loss of bioactive ingredients and sensory value of the product. During roasting and storage, fat oxidation is also one of the problems that reduce the quality of RGBRF. In order to complete the RGBRF process, experiments using different temperature and time as 160oC, 200oC, 240oC for 10 to 30 mins were done to find the best roasting conditions. To limit the oxidation of fat during the processing and preserving RGBRF, ergothioneine (ERG) extract from enoki mushroom were supplemented at 3%, 5%, 7% and 10% (w/w) before roasted, the product was then ground and put into two types of packaging (PA and aluminum), vacuum seamed and stored at room temperature for 8 weeks were carried out. The results showed that germinated brown rice (GBR) which supplemented 3% of the extract before roasted at 200oC for 30 mins showed the best quality in term of sensory value, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content and helped to limit fat oxidation as well as maintained stable quality after 8 weeks of storage in PA and aluminum packaging. In addition, the results from in vitro of starch resistance and in vivo of sugar absorption capacity in rats showed that RGBRF did not significantly change the GI index as well as the ability to absorb sugar compared to unroasted product. The results indicated that RGBRF should be used as a nutritious food with the ability to supplement bioactive compounds to the people at risk of lifestyle diseases.

The study established the proximate composition, pasting, and functional properties of cassava flour (CF) blended with chia seeds flour (CSF). Composite flour was prepared by blending CF with CSF in the ratios of 95:05, 90:10, 85:15, 80:20, and 75:25 with CF and CSF used as controls, respectively. The effect of blending significantly (p < 0.05) increased protein, fat, fibre, and ash contents as CSF increased. On other hand, moisture and carbohydrate contents decreased significantly. Pasting properties of composite flour blends decreased significantly (p < 0.05) as the incorporation of CSF increased and a noticeable change was observed for composite flour (75:25) except for peak time and pasting temperature. Functional properties of water absorption capacity (WAC) of CSF were significantly different with CF and composite flour blends. Oil absorption capacity (OAC) of CF and CSF were significantly different, while the composite flour blends had varied OAC due to the inclusion of the different amounts of CSF. The swelling capacity (SC) of CF and CSF were not significantly different, but composite flour blends were significantly different from both CSF and CF. The least gelation concentration (LGC) and bulk density (BD) increased significantly as chia seeds increased. Increased concentration of chia CSF in the composite flour blends showed to alter the functional properties. This study recommends composite flour 75:25 for processing semiliquid products like porridge due to reduced pasting properties values that may be associated with increased energy density compared to CF.

Germination Time

AbstractBrown rice was germinated for different times (12, 24, 36, and 48 h) at different temperatures (25, 30, and 35 °C) with the aim to improve the in vitro digestibility and antioxidant potential of the flour made from it. Results showed that increase in germination time and temperature increased in vitro digestibility of starch and protein during germination of brown rice owing to depolymerisation of starch and protein molecules by enzymatic activity. After germination under varying conditions, antioxidant activity increased from 50.19 to 95.58%, total phenolic and flavonoid contents from 0.88 to 2.02 mg GAE/g and 34.06–62.94 mg QE/100g, respectively. Germination at elevated temperature (35 °C) for prolonged time (48 h) also increased the reducing power by 60.49% and metal chelating activity by 114.50% as a result of structural breakdown of bound phenolics. Increased activity of hydrolytic enzymes with progress in the germination time and temperature also results in continuous reduction in the pasting properties and lightness values (L), while increasing a* and b* values of the flour of germinated brown rice. Tailored germination, therefore, can be offered as a tool to increase nutrient digestibility and bioactive potential of brown rice as compared to non-germinated brown rice, thus, producing naturally modified flour with enhanced functionality.
