The Rheological Performance and Structure of Wheat/Acorn Composite Dough and the Quality and In Vitro Digestibility of Its Noodles
2021
Wheat flour was partially replaced by debittered acorn flour (DAF) with 0%, 10%, 15%, 20% as well as 25%. Rheological properties of wheat/acorn dough and quality and in vitro digestibility of its noodles were determined. Results showed that DAF addition significantly improved pasting viscosity and dough stability time while excessive addition weakened the protein network and decreased maximum fermentation height. Furthermore, noodles with substitutions exhibited promising technological properties as a food ingredient for noodle making (higher hardness, chewiness, gumminess, firmness, and less cooking time) but poor extensibility, smaller lightness values, and a slight deterioration in cooking quality. Furthermore, PCA and correlation analysis demonstrated a significant relationship between textural and cooking properties and pasting and mixing parameters. Moreover, SEM images of acorn noodles presented coarser surfaces but a tighter cross-section structure. Finally, in vitro digestibility results indicated that DAF addition significantly reduced the susceptibility of the starches to enzyme hydrolysis, while the addition of acorn flour slightly decreased the overall acceptability. Thus, the partial substitution of wheat flour with acorn flour can favorably be used in noodles formulation.
