ABSTRACT

The effects of the storage process on the quality characteristics of a hemp-enriched "tsoureki" (a rich-dough baked Greek product, rich-dough baked product [RDBP]) were investigated. The wheat flour was substituted with defatted hemp flour at selected ratios (0%-50% hemp:wheat flour). The baked products were stored at 25°C and at specific time intervals (0, 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14 days), and their properties were determined, including moisture content, water activity, structure, texture, color, total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activity. Moreover, analyses of phenolic compounds were performed using quadrupole time of flight liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy, identifying 14 compounds. Both the first-order kinetic model and modified Avrami equation, including the hemp-to-wheat ratio effect in the rate constant, well described the changes in the quality characteristics. The results showed that storage time and hemp incorporation significantly affected the quality of the product. Water activity decreased from 0.901 to 0.859, whereas moisture content decreased from 30.52%-32.33% (0 days) to 26.97%-27.02% w.b. (14 days) with storage time for all hemp additions. Hardness was greatly affected by hemp flour addition and approached 14.72 and 17.85 N after 14 days of storage for 30% and 50% substitutions, respectively. Springiness and cohesiveness decreased with hemp addition and storage time. The color difference of the hemp-enriched products compared to the control sample increased during storage. TPC increased due to the addition of hemp flour, whereas 14 compounds were identified. Based on property correlation, the hemp-enriched RDBP-tsoureki held its high-quality characteristics for 7 days of storage and contained a significant amount of bioactive compounds. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Industrially produced, defatted hemp is a promising byproduct that can be used to nutritionally enhance baked goods. Modeling results can be used for the prediction of the properties that define product storage ability and also that the hemp-enriched, rich dough-baked Greek "tsoureki" could be produced while maintaining total phenolic content and antioxidant activity during 7 days of storage. These findings are expected to be used in the future in baked goods industry applications to produce goods with an improved nutritional profile.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: A rich-dough baked Greek product named 'tsoureki' was prepared using non-gluten hemp seed flour at ratios of 0:100, 10:90, 30:70, and 50:50. The effects of hemp flour addition on the properties of 'tsoureki', including physicochemical properties (moisture content, water activity, sorption phenomena), structural properties, textural properties, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and sensorial characteristics, as well as the macroscopic structure and morphological characteristics, were studied. RESULTS: Hemp flour addition affected dough rheology, showing tan δ values < 1, a decrease in both G' and G″ values, while both flow behavior and consistency indices were also significantly affected, which might have an influence on the final baked goods. The Guggenheim-Anderson-de Boer model satisfactorily described sorption data, while both hemp addition and temperature had a significant effect. A significantly higher hardness of 11.55 N, a lower specific volume of 2.65 cm3  g-1 , and a lower porosity of 0.676 were observed at high hemp additions. The hemp flour level influenced the color of the crumb and crust, and the total color difference (ΔE) increased significantly with the increase in hemp flour. Hemp flour additions were detectable by the naked eye, with an obvious color difference between control and hemp-containing samples. Moreover, the phenolic content and antioxidant capacity were increased, as were some organoleptic characteristics, such as the bitter aftertaste. Concurrently, overall acceptability decreased significantly. CONCLUSION: Overall, the incorporation of gluten-free defatted hemp seed flour in 'tsoureki' formulations seems to be a promising alternative for improving quality of such rich-dough baked products. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

ABSTRACT

Sustainable food systems that employ renewable resources without competition with the food chain are drivers for the bioeconomy era. This study reports the valorization of microwave-pretreated spent coffee grounds (SCGs) to produce oleogels rich in bioactive compounds. Microbial oil rich in carotenoids (MOC) was produced under batch fermentation of Rhodosporidium toruloides using SCG enzymatic hydrolysates. Candelilla wax (CLW) could structure MOC and sunflower oil at a 3.3-fold lower concentration than that of carnauba wax (CBW). MOC-based oleogels with 10% CBW and 3% CLW showed an elastic-dominant and gel-like structure (tan δ ≪ 1), providing gelation and oil binding capacity (>95%). Dendritic structures of CBW-based oleogels and evenly distributed rod-like crystals of CLW-based ones were observed via polarized light microscopy. MOC-based oleogels exhibited similar Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy spectra. X-ray diffractograms of oleogels were distinguished by the oil type that presented ß'-type polymorphism. MOC-based oleogels could be applied in confectionary products and spreads as substitutes for trans fatty acids, reformulating fat-containing food products.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential use of micronized whole wheat flours in breadmaking. The micronization process was achieved by a jet mill and flours (JF) of particle size, ranged from 17 to 84 µm, were used. According to the particle size of the JF, the amount of water added to dough changed and ranged from 77 to 84% as it was calculated in farinograph experiments. JF breads had higher bread yield, firmer crumb, higher elasticity, lower porosity and darker bread color compared to control whole wheat bread. Overall a lower particle size of JF resulted in a close structure of bread. According to sensory evaluation, difference among samples was difficult to perceive. During storage JF bread presented lower limiting firmness potential. After all, there is evidence that jet milled flour determined bread physical characteristics and further storage stability.

ABSTRACT

Finer barley and rye flours were produced by jet milling at two feed rates. The effect of reduced particle size on composition and several physicochemical and mechanical properties of all flours were evaluated. Moisture content decreased as the size of the granules decreased. Differences on ash and protein contents were observed. Jet milling increased the amount of damaged starch in both rye and barley flours. True density increased with decreased particle size whereas porosity and bulk density increased. The solvent retention capacity profile was also affected by jet milling. Barley was richer in phenolics and had greater antioxidant activity than rye. Regarding colour, both rye and barley flours when subjected to jet milling became brighter, whereas their yellowness was not altered significantly. The minimum gelation concentration for all flours was 16%w/v. Barley flour gels were stronger, firmer and more elastic than the rye ones.

ABSTRACT

The interest for producing wheat flour with health promoting effect and improved functionality has led to investigate new milling techniques that can provide finer flours. In this study, jet milling treatment was used to understand the effect of ultrafine size reduction onto microstructure and physicochemical properties of wheat flour. Three different conditions of jet milling, regarding air pressure (4 or 8 bars) feed rate and recirculation, were applied to obtain wheat flours with different particle size (control, F1, F2 and F3 with d50 127.45, 62.30, 22.94 and 11.4 µm, respectively). Large aggregates were gradually reduced in size, depending on the intensity of the process, and starch granules were separated from the protein matrix. Damaged starch increased while moisture content decreased because of milling intensity. Notable changes were observed in starch hydrolysis kinetics, which shifted to higher values with milling. Viscosity of all micronized samples was reduced and gelatinization temperatures (To, Tp, Tc) for F2 and F3 flours increased. Controlling jet milling conditions allow obtaining flours with different functionality, with greater changes at higher treatment severity that induces large particle reduction.
