Разработана рецептура 3 видов безглютеновых кексов с использованием кукурузной, рисовой, амарантовой муки. Для исследования взяли 6 видов муки от производителей: пшеничную, рисовую, кукурузную, амарантовую, гречневую, нутовую. Изготовлены 6 видов кексов по общей классической рецептуре. Определены физико-химические показатели готовых изделий из различных видов муки. Щелочность кексов составила, град.: из муки рисовой 1,00 амарантовой 1,16 кукурузной 1,42 нутовой 1,66 гречневой 1,66 пшеничной 2,00. По органолептическим показателям наибольшую оценку экспертов получил кекс из кукурузной муки 25 баллов. Кексы из рисовой и амарантовой муки оценены в 18 и 16 баллов соответственно. Наименьшую 2 балла оценку получил кекс из нутовой муки из-за ярко выраженного аромата и вкуса гороха. Гречневый кекс 7 баллов также не рекомендован экспертами из-за специфического аромата и вкуса гречки, нежелательного для сладкого изделия. Установлено, что наиболее оптимальной для безглютеновых кексов является рецептура с использованием кукурузной, рисовой либо амарантовой муки, содержащей, мг/100 г: Са 11,00 5,50 и 817,45 К 80,85 41,8 и 279,40 Mg 16,50 19,25 и 136,40 витамина Р 59,99 53,90 и 30,35, соответственно. The formulation of three types of gluten-free cupcakes using corn, rice, amaranth flour was developed. For the study, we took six types of flour from manufacturers: wheat, rice, corn, amaranth, buckwheat, chickpea. Six types of cupcakes were made according to a common classic recipe. The physicochemical parameters of finished products from various types of flour are determined. The alkalinity of cupcakes from various types of flour amounted to, deg.: rice 1,00 amaranth 1,16 corn 1,42 chickpeas 1,66 buckwheat 1,66 wheat 2,00. According to organoleptic indicators, the greatest assessment of experts was received by a cupcake made of corn flour 25 points. Rice and amaranth flour cupcakes are rated 18 and 16 points respectively. The lowest 2 points score was received by a cupcake made of chickpea flour because of the pronounced aroma and taste of peas. Buckwheat cupcake 7 points is also not recommended by experts because of the specific aroma and taste of buckwheat, undesirable for sweet products. It was found that the most optimal for gluten-free cupcakes is a recipe using corn, rice or amaranth flour containing, mg/100 g: Ca 11,00 5,50 and 817,45 K 80,85 41,8 and 279,40 Mg 16,50 19,25 and 136,40 vitamin P 59,99 53,90 and 30,35, respectively.

Narrow range of Russian products for consumers with celiac disease, high prices and low nutritional value of these products determine the relevance of the development of new flour confectionery products for consumers who stick to a gluten-free diet. The aim of the work was to develop a food concentrate – semi-finished product for gluten-free cupcakes cooking. The main object of the studies was flour obtained from amaranth seeds which had been chosen because of the advantages of its chemical composition compared to the traditional industrial types of gluten-free flour – rice flour and corn flour. Amaranth flour was introduced into the dough in the form of a homogeneous mixture with corn flour or rice flour. It amounted for 5.0% to 25.0% of the total amount of flour. According to the results of studies of organoleptic and physicochemical indicators of the cupcakes quality the authors proposed the optimal combinations of corn flour and amaranth flour; rice flour and amaranth flour. They showed that if the dough base includes corn flour and amaranth flour in the ratio of 10.0–12.5% : 90.0–87.5% or rice flour and amaranth flour in the ratio of 15.0–17.5% : 85.0–82.5% it allows to obtain standard quality cupcakes. Considering these data the authors developed the recipes of semi-finished gluten-free cupcakes with amaranth flour. Calculation of nutritional value of semi-finished gluten-free cupcakes cooked following the developed recipes showed that corn-amaranth and rice-amaranth cupcakes had a better ratio of basic nutrients. They had higher content of easy-to-digest gluten-free proteins (up to 7.9–8.4 g/100 g of semi-finished product) and dietary fibers (up to 1.2–3.4 g/100 g of semi-finished product). They had lower total fat content (4–5 times). Based on the results of the conducted research it is possible to confirm that the use of amaranth flour in the development of semi-finished gluten-free cupcakes can significantly increase the nutritional value of these products and to extend the product range of affordable gluten-free Russian products.

Gluten-free (GF) products, including pasta, are often characterised by nutritional deficiencies, such as scarce dietary fibre and excess of calories. Chickpea flour is increasingly being used by the food industries. Hulls, rich in dietary fibre and bioactive compounds, are discarded after milling. The aim of this work was to evaluate the quality features of short-cut GF fresh pasta added of hull (8% w/w) derived from kabuli (KH) or Apulian black (ABH) chickpeas, in comparison with control GF pasta prepared without hull. The enriched pasta, which could be labelled as “high fibre”, was characterised by a higher level of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity than the control. ABH-enriched pasta showed the highest anthocyanins (33.37 ± 1.20 and 20.59 ± 0.11 mg/kg of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside on dry matter in raw and cooked pasta, respectively). Hull addition increased colour intensity and structural quality of GF pasta: ABH-enriched pasta had the lowest cooking loss and the highest water absorption capacity; KH-enriched pasta showed the highest firmness. No significant differences in sensory liking were found among the samples, except for “aftertaste”. Chickpea hull can be used as an innovative ingredient to produce potentially functional GF pasta, meeting the dietary needs of consumers without affecting quality.

Amaranth-oat composites were developed using gluten free amaranth flour containing essential amino acids and minerals with oat products containing β-glucan, known for lowering blood cholesterol. Amaranth flour and oat bran concentrate (OBC) composites (1:4) were processed using different technologies, including dry mixing, baking, steaming, cold wet blending, and high speed homogenizing (Polytron PT6000) with cold water or hot water. The results showed that water holding capacities, pasting, and rheological properties were dramatically increased by wet blending, Polytron with cold water, and Polytron with hot water followed by drum drying. The processing procedures created dissimilar physical properties that will enhance the application of ancient grains and oat for functional foods that are suitable for people who are gluten-intolerant. In addition, the dietary fiber contents of composites were increased by the incorporation of OBC. The composites can be inexpensively prepared and processed. The new healthful products will be affordable for people who suffer from celiac disease or gluten-intolerant. These innovative gluten-free functional food products will help millions of gluten sensitive consumers enjoy heart-healthy functional foods.


In this study, pre-gelatinized simple corn flour with microwave and three levels of Balangu Shirazi gum were used in producing gluten free bread. The substructure of two types of flour was evaluated using the electronic microscope. The properties of bread samples including moisture, specific volume, porosity, crust color, texture and overall acceptance were studied. The results of electronic microscope showed that the granular structure of corn flour was coherent. However, the granular structure of pre-gelatinized corn flour had more structural expansion and swell because of demolished heat. In addition, samples containing pre-gelatinized corn flour and 2% Balangu Shirazi gum had the highest humidity in the first (22.5%) and third (19.4%) day. The highest porosity (23.3% and 23.5%) and specific volume (4.9 and 5.1 cm3 /g) and the minimal texture firmness were observed within 1 day after manufacturing (4.8 & 4.9 Newton) in samples containing pregelatinized corn flour and two levels of Balangu Shirazi gum (1% and 2%). Moreover, the results showed that increased L* colorful component (52% increase) caused by using the pre-gelatinized corn flour and raising the consumption level of gum. The presence of gum didn’t have a significant impact on two colorful components such as a* and b*. The use of pregelatinized corn flour resulted in decreasing b* colorful component. Also, sensory evaluations gave the highest score of overall acceptance to samples containing pre-gelatinized corn flour and two levels of Balangu Shirazi gum (1% and 2%).

Introduction. For patients with gluten intolerance, diet therapy is the main method of treatment. However, gluten-free diets are found lacking in many important components. Children that fail to consume neccessary nutrients or have problems with their absorption tend to be physically retarded. Gluten-free diet may increase the risk of autoimmune diseases, especially type I diabetes. Therefore, products for children with celiac diseases should be both gluten-free and have adequate bioavailability of carbohydrates. This article features the chemical composition of amaranth, the geometric structure of starch grains, and its effect on the formation of colloidal solutions. It also compares the glycemic index (GI) of amaranth with other gluten-free grains, i.e. rice, buckwheat, and corn. Study objects and methods. The research featured native amaranth grain (Amaranthus cruentus) (Mexico), puffed amaranth kernels (Mexico), and coarse granular amaranth flour (Mexico). Results and discussion. Amaranth grain contains 12.5–23% of protein, 50.7–77.0% of carbohydrates, 6.0–8.0% of lipids, 10.5–18.3% of dietary fiber, and 2.5–3.5% of minerals. The GI of amaranth and its products were compared with similar values of other glutenfree crops, namely rice, buckwheat, and corn. Amaranth grain and its products demonstrated a higher GI, if compared with other gluten-free grain raw materials. The GI of amaranth grain was 87, the GI of the puffed amaranth kernels was 101, and the GI of the coarse granular amaranth flour was 97. Amaranth starch is easy to digest, which is mainly due to the high content of amylopectin (88 to 98%), since amylopectin breaks down faster than amylose. The relatively small size of starch granules (1.5–3.0 microns) increases the attack capacity of enzymes. These properties make amaranth starch glycemic, or low-resistant, which means that amaranth is easily digested and possesses stability to retrogradation. Conclusion. The unique nutritional and functional properties of amaranth gluten-free products can significantly improve the diet of children with gluten intolerance. However, amaranth starch and its products have a high GI. Hence, it is necessary to control the percentage of these components in formulations and be careful with the selection of additional components and their impact on the total GI.

The article presents the results of a study on the development of a recipe for semi‑finished custard based on gluten‑free raw materials. The ratio of components in the gluten‑free mixture was optimized using the regression analysis method. The influence of gluten‑free raw materials on the rheological properties of the semi‑ finished product is studied. The variants of the experiment differed in the composition of the composite mixture (the ratio of corn, rice flour and corn starch). The chemical composition and the ratio of the components of the mixture determine the rheological properties of the semi‑finished product. The experimental version with the ratio of rice flour, corn flour and corn starch 50:40:10 most corresponds to the rheological properties of the control version and is characterized by high consumer properties.
