Cassava starch extracted from cassava roots (Manihot esculanta) is a highly used ingredient for most commercial food products and has a high viscosity, water holding capacity, and binding abilities. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of replacing composite flour mixture with cassava starch on the nutritional and physical properties of chicken sausages. A scientific experiment was designed for the sausage formulation to incorporate 50% to 100% with cassava modified and native starch compared to the control sample. These samples were evaluated for sensory and textural properties. Nonparametric data obtained through sensory evaluation were analyzed using the Friedman ranking test. According to the test results, the best sample was analyzed for the nutritional toxicological composition and storage stability. According to the statistical analysis, the sample which was 50% replaced with native cassava starch showed the best sensory profile. The best sample showed average moisture, crude fat, crude protein, total solids, ash, and acid-insoluble ash content of 65.98, 7.19, 8.79, 34.02, 2.36, and 0.32 percent respectively. The starch content of the best-ranked sample was 3.12 and the cyanide content of that sample was 1.54 ppm on a dry basis. According to the microbial analysis results, the sausage sample was coliform negative and zero initial plate count was obtained. Besides, the best-ranked fresh chicken sausage was nutritionally acceptable and could keep for 14 days without adding preservatives.

Composite millet palm jaggery (CMPJ) muffins were prepared by replacing all-purpose flour with composite millet flour at different level (0:100, 50:50, 30:70) and replacing cane sugar completely with palm jaggery. CMPJ muffins and control muffins with cane sugar (APFS) were analyzed for Physico-sensory and textural properties (TPA). Incorporation of millet flour and wheat flour at the ratio 70:30 resulted in an acceptable product with good sponginess which is one of the desirable properties of muffins. The moisture content of muffins prepared with palm jaggery was found to be higher (21.84±0.01%) than muffins prepared with sugar (19.58 ±0.01%). The lightness of the crumb and crust (37.58±0.08, 28.89±0.11) of CMPJ muffins were found to be lesser than control muffins (58.34±0.20, 35.30±0.99), whereas redness of crumb and crust was found more in CMPJ muffins (9.18±0.07, 12.12±0.22) than APFS muffins (6.56±0.15, 10.61 ±0.15) which is due to the brown colour of palm jaggery. The muffins with jaggery had lower pH and sensory score and higher water activity (aw) than muffins with sugar. TPA results showed that CMPJ (6270±7.2 g) were slightly harder than APFS (4729±4.7). Microbial analysis (Total plate count, Yeast and mold count) for CMPJ muffins was found to be safe for consumption upto 12 days without added preservative. It is concluded that CMPJ muffins (without preservative) can be an alternative to APFS without affecting the quality parameters of the product.

This study evaluated some quality attributes of pancakes from peeled and unpeeled sweetpotato flours and cassava starch. Cassava starch was substituted up to 30% of the total composite flour. The proximate composition, colour, carotenoid and functional properties of the different flour blends were determined. The flour blends were processed into pancakes and the proximate composition and sensory acceptability of the pancakes were determined. Data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance. The result showed that they were significant differences (p<0.05) in the functional properties of the flour blends. Bulk density, Water absorption capacity, Oil absorption capacity, swelling capacity ranged from 0.70 to 0.78 g/ml, 1.87 to 2.30 g/ml, 1.02 to 1.40 g/ml and 5.18% to 6.66%  respectively. There were significant differences (p<0.05) in the proximate composition of the pancake samples. The values ranged from 42.76 to 45.53%, 2.13 to 3.98%, 9.06 to 10.34%, 5.01 to 7.18%, 3.75 to 6.01% and 29.19 to 35.33% for moisture, ash, fat, protein, crude fibre and carbohydrate contents, respectively. Pancake produced from 100:0 peeled and unpeeled sweetpotato flour had the highest score for overall acceptability which can compare favorably, with pancakes from wheat flour which is the control sample. In conclusion, sweetpotato flour blended with cassava starch at different ratio gave good proximate and functional properties which resulted in pancakes of good quality attributes.

Jackfruit seeds flour is very rich in nutrients and may be incorporated into wheat flour to develop nutrient dense baked products. Consumption of these products may improve the nutrition status of the people, hence fulfill sustainable development goal number two. In this study, nutritional composition, sensory profile, and consumer acceptability of wheat-jackfruit seeds composite buns (Mandazi) were investigated. Jackfruit seeds flour (JSF) was developed and incorporated into wheat flour (WF) at 10, 20, and 30% to produce composite flour used for bun preparation. Flours and buns were subjected to proximate, mineral, and sensory analyses with WF serving as a control sample. JSF had significantly (p < 0.05) higher protein, fibre and mineral contents than wheat flour. Proximate and mineral contents increased significantly (p < 0.05) in bun samples with increasing levels of WF substitution in the formulations. As for sensory analysis, whole wheat control buns and 10% composite buns had significantly (p < 0.05) higher crumb colour, softness, sweetness and consumer acceptability but lower colour intensity than 20 and 30% composite buns. Therefore, incorporation of JSF up to 10% into WF produces composite buns with enhanced nutritional contents and similar sensory profile and consumer acceptability to whole wheat flour. Keywords: Jackfruit seed; Nutritional composition; Sensory profile;  Composite buns

Актуальной тенденцией развития пищевых технологий является поиск ингредиентов для замены или снижения содержания сахара, соли и жира при одновременном увеличении содержания пищевых волокон в продукте. Исследовано влияние мальтита (М) и инулина (И) при замене сахара в рецептуре безглютенового печенья на текстуру и физические свойства теста и изделия, приготовленного на основе мучной смеси из амаранта, киноа и гречихи в соотношении 0,3 : 0,45 : 0,25 соответственно. Составлено пять образцов рецептур печенья, в которых сахар частично (50%) или полностью (100%) заменяли М и/или И. В рецептуре контрольного образца в качестве подсластителя использовали сахар. При приготовлении теста для безглютенового печенья количество воды для всех образцов было одинаковым. Установлено, что полная замена сахара М и И повышает показатели твердости, вязкости и адгезивности безглютенового теста, что затрудняет его обработку. В образцах, где 50% сахара заменяли М или сахар был полностью заменен М и И в равных количествах, липкость уменьшалась. Включение М в рецептуру безглютенового печенья существенно не повлияло на его физические свойства – диаметр, высоту, расплываемость, яркость цвета. Образцы печенья, выпеченные из теста с включением И, были темнее и тоньше, чем контрольный образец, и лучше сохраняли свои хрустящие свойства. Внесение М и И существенно не повлияло на твердость изделий, однако образцы печенья с полной заменой сахара М, с 50%-й заменой сахара И, а также содержащие М и И в равных количествах характеризовались значительной хрупкостью. При замене в рецептуре 50% сахара М или 100% сахара И получено мягкое и менее хрупкое печенье, привлекательное для потребителя. Таким образом, при полной замене сахара смесью М и И в равных количествах можно получить безглютеновое тесто и печенье с хорошей текстурой. Полная замена сахара в сочетании с использованием пищевых волокон с пребиотическими свойствами наряду с мукой псевдозлаковых культур позволяет создать полезный для здоровья продукт с потенциально более низким гликемическим индексом и сниженной калорийностью. The search for ingredients to replace or reduce the content of sugar, salt and fat while increasing the content of dietary fiber in the product is an actual trend in the development of food technologies. The influence of maltitol (M) and inulin (I) when replacing sugar in the formulation of gluten-free cookies on the texture and physical properties of the dough and the product prepared on the basis of a flour mixture of amaranth, quinoa and buckwheat in a ratio of 0.3 : 0.45 : 0.25 respectively was studied. Five samples of cookie formulations were compiled, in which sugar was partially (50%) or completely (100%) replaced by M and/or I. In the formulation of the control sample, sugar was used as a sweetener. When preparing the gluten-free cookie dough, the amount of water for all samples was the same. It was found that the complete replacement of sugar M and I increases the hardness, viscosity and adhesiveness of gluten-free dough, which makes it difficult to process it. In samples where 50% of the sugar was replaced by M or the sugar was completely replaced by M and I in equal amounts, the stickiness was reduced. Adding M to the formulation of gluten-free cookies did not significantly affect its physical properties – diameter, height, blurring, and color brightness. The cookie samples baked from the dough with the inclusion of I were darker and thinner than the control sample, and better preserved their crispy properties. The addition of M and I did not significantly affect the hardness of the products, but the samples of cookies with a complete replacement of sugar M, with a 50% replacement of sugar I, as well as containing M and I in equal quantities, were characterized by significant brittleness. When replacing 50% of the sugar M in the formulation, or 100% of the sugar I, a soft and less brittle cookie is obtained, which is attractive to the consumer. Thus, if you completely replace the sugar with a mixture of M and I in equal amounts, you can get a gluten-free dough and cookies with a good texture. Complete sugar replacement combined with the use of dietary fiber with prebiotic properties, along with the flour of pseudo-cereals, allows you to create a healthy product with a potentially lower glycemic index and reduced caloric content.

This study was aim to evaluate the physical properties of wheat-tiger nut flour mixes and physical, proximate and sensory attribute of pancakes developed from wheat-tiger nut flour mixes. Fresh yellow variety of tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus) tubers and other ingredients used for this research were purchased from the Isara market, Saapade, Ogun State, Nigeria. The tiger nut seed were sorted, soaked and germinated for 48 hrs, dried and processed into flour. Pancakes were prepared after incorporation of 10, 20, and 30% of germinated tiger nut flour. The water absorption capacity and solubility values ranged from 44.66 g/ml – 53.00 g/ml and 3.96-8.06% respectively. The result of the swelling power and bulk density varied from 295.00-337.66% and 497.51 kg/m3 - 555.55 kg/m3. The result of the proximate composition of the pancake showed that the protein, moisture, fat, ash and crude fiber increased significantly (p = 0.05) while the carbohydrate contents decreased significantly with an increase in the germinated tiger nut flour substitution. The protein values ranged from 11.91 – 21.75 with sample D having the highest value of protein at substitution level of 30% germinated tiger nut flour compared to the control sample A. The physical properties of the pancake viz thickness, diameter and spread factor ranged from 2.10-10.00 mm, 111.33-158.66 mm, 111.00-757.14 mm respectively. Sensory data indicated that the pancake produced from germinated tiger nut flour with 30% was acceptable. In conclusion, this study has shown that the use of tiger nut can be considered as a potential ingredient in baking and production of high protein and high fiber products. Nevertheless, it is important to consume snacks with other protein-rich diets to supplement the reduction resulted from substitution.

The functional, physicochemical and sensory evaluation of bread from wheat and garden peas flours were investigated. Five (5) bread samples were produced from the proportion of wheat and garden pea flours as 90%:10% (B), 80%:20% (C), 70%:30% (D), 60%:40% (E) and 100% wheat was the control sample (A) using standard methods. All the functional parameters differed (p≤0.05) significantly. The moisture, crude protein, crude fat, Ash and crude fiber increased (p≤0.05) significantly while the carbohydrate content decrease (p≤0.05) significantly with corresponding increase in the percentage of the composite flour from 10-40%. The result of the physical properties showed that there was a significant difference in all the physical parameters. Also, sensory results showed that there were significant differences in all the sensory scores. However, consumers preferred the bread from 100% wheat flour and 90% and 10% (Sample B) of wheat and garden peas flours substitution.

Biodegradable foam is a packaging material made from renewable resources which is very prospective to substitute synthetic polystyrene foam. Starch is now dominantly use as a promising material to produce this foam due to its superior characteristic and its availability. However, starch is preferable as food source thus it is important to looking for a material such as corn hominy to reduce its usage in biopolymer production. Corn hominy is a by-product of corn milling which has high content of starch and fiber. Its high fiber content could improve the strength of the foam. This research is aimed to formulate the composition of corn hominy and cassava starch to produce good quality of biodegradable foam. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) is added for further better physical properties. The physical analysis showed that the composition of cassava starch and corn hominy feed has affected physical properties of biodegradable foam. Increasing the content of starch resulted on increasing of foam expansion. In contrast, the more starch content in the foam, the more brittle the foam will be. The best composition was given by ratio of 80 %-wt cassava starch and 20 %-wt corn hominy. The adding of PVOH affected the physical properties of less hardness and less brittle of the foam. Keywords: biodegradable foam, cassava starch, hominy feed, PVOH Abstrak Busa biodegradable merupakan bahan pengemas yang terbuat dari bahan nabati, ditujukan untuk subtitusi polistirena busa sintetik. Bio-polimer ini umumnya terbuat dari pati singkong karena ketersediaannya yang melimpah dan keunggulan sifat-sifat busa pati yang dihasilkan. Bagaimanapun, singkong adalah bahan pangan, sehingga bahan lain seperti ampok jagung perlu diujicobakan untuk mengurangi penggunaan singkong pada produksi bio-polymer ini. Ampok merupakan hasil samping dari penggilingan biji jagung. Kandungan serat ampok sangat tinggi dan diyakini dapat memperbaiki sifat fisis mekanis busa seperti meningkatkan kekuatan tarik dan mengurangi kerapuhan busa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memformulasi komposisi pati singkong dan ampok jagung untuk memproduksi busa biodegradable berkualitas baik. Polivinil alkohol (PVOH) ditambahkan untuk membantu memperbaiki karakter fisik busa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rasio pati dan ampok mempengaruhi sifat fisik mekanis busa. Peningkatan kandungan pati dalam busa akan meningkatkan sifat rapuh bahan. Komposisi terbaik dihasilkan dari busa berbahan 80%-b pati dan 20 %-b ampok. Penambahan PVOH dapat memperbaiki sifat fisik busa dengan menurunkan kekerasan dan kerapuhan. Kata kunci: busa biodegradable, pati singkong, ampok jagung, PVOH

Gluten-free and vegan bakery items have been gaining popularity. Their demand has increased over the past few years, with India being one of the largest gluten-free food consumers. The gluten-free pieces of bread available in the market are crumbly in nature and have a dry mouthfeel, reducing its overall acceptability among consumers. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to develop gluten-free and vegan bread and enrich it with a functional component such as flaxseeds and assess its overall acceptability and nutritional value compared to gluten-free bread available in the market. Once the product was standardized for its serving size and yield, various sensory evaluation trials were conducted using 9 points hedonic scale on bread attributes with the help of semi-trained(n=30)and trained panellists(n=3). Proximate analysis of macronutrients was conducted along with the microbial analysis. The proximate analysis showed that the experimental product had a higher protein content(18.26g)and a lower fat content (5.58g) as compared to the market-bought control sample of gluten-free bread (Total protein content was 3.44g and total fat content was 9.20g). The experimental bread microbial analysis indicated that the total plate count, yeast and mold count, and coli form count were in the acceptable range. Salmonella and E.coli were absent in the sample Statistical analysis using paired t-test was performed found a significant difference between the experimental and control group among the following characteristics: taste/flavour, texture/mouth feel, and overall acceptability (p≤0.05). A shelf-life study of the bread was conducted, and it was seen that the bread remained sensorial acceptable for three days at a refrigerated temperature and four days at room temperature. The bread had a higher nutritional profile than the control sample and received higher overall acceptability.
