Protein Enrichment of Oriental Noodles Based on Canna Edulis Starch
Revista Boliviana De Quimica, 2012
Spray drying, drum drying and extrusion cooking were applied in order to find out the best treatment for pre-gelatinisation of Canna edulis starch for noodle processing. Spray-drying proved to be the gentlest process to modify the native starch, whereas cooking extrusion was too drastic. Adding either native or pre-gelatinised C. edulis starch to wheat flour noodles increased the solids loss, whereas noodles made of C. edulis only, showed lower cooked weight and solids loss than commercial samples. C. edulis noodles with the best cooking stability were obtained by mixing 12% pre-gelatinised starch, 28% native starch and 60% water, dipping in boiling water for 60 seconds, cooling in water at room temperature (17°C) for 60 seconds and then oven drying at 17°C. Protein enrichment of C. edulis noodles by adding either lupin concentrate or defatted soybean flour showed that lupin-C. edulis and soybean-C. edulis mixtures had higher solids loss than noodles prepared by using C. edulis starch only. Sensory evaluation results showed that the cooling of noodles in water at room temperature did not make any difference to the appearance and texture compared to samples cooled down at 0°C. C. edulis noodles of 1.5 mm and 0.8 mm diameter showed big differences with commercial samples. Moreover, an improvement on the appearance and texture of C. edulis noodles was observed by reducing the noodle diameter from 1.5 to 0.8 mm. Acceptability test of the protein enriched noodles showed that consumers had preference for the mixture Lupin-C. edulis.

The relation between protein characteristics, protein network formation and wheat noodle properties was studied. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), soy glycinin, ovalbumin, S-ovalbumin and lysozyme were included in the recipe of wheat-based noodles. The characteristics of these non-wheat proteins impacted the type, rate and extent of protein network formation during noodle dough preparation and cooking, and thereby the properties of fresh and cooked noodles. None of the added proteins enhanced the properties of fresh noodles. BSA and soy glycinin enhanced Kieffer-rig extensibility parameters of cooked noodles. Addition of ovalbumin or S-ovalbumin led to excessive protein polymerization in cooked noodles and lowered their quality. Inclusion of lysozyme lowered the rate and extent of polymerization during cooking. Experiments in which urea, olive oil or urea were added in the recipe showed that non-covalent interactions dominate the properties of fresh noodles while covalent crosslinks and hydrogen bonds mainly impact the properties of cooked noodles.
Production of Noodles from Composite Flour and it is Nutritional and Sensory Characteristics
Chinese Journal of Medical Research, 2018
Wheat flour is widely used in many food industries involving noodles. Therefore, noodles are an important part in the diet of many countries around the world. The objective of this study was to assess the nutritional and sensory characteristics of wheat-sorghum and Wheat-millet enhanced with guar flour for noodles production. The noodles were prepared as Daber-noodle and millet-noodle by mixing wheat flour to Daber or millet flours to obtain a mixture of 10%, 20% and 30% noodles) compared to control (Nobo). The falling number of wheat flour was 441, wet gluten was 32±0.01%, and dry gluten was 22±0.3%. As the concentration of millet and Daber flour increased in the prepared noodles, the moisture, ash, oil and protein contents consequently increased, while the case was reversed in carbohydrate contents. In the millet-noodle, and at the mixture of 10%, 20% and 30%, Na were 0.23, 0.31 and 0.31 mg/100g, respectively, while were 0.18, 0.24 and 0.25 mg/100g in Daber-noodle, whereas potassium content, at the same mixtures were 0.25, 0.22 and 0.32 mg/100g, respectively, in the millet-noodle, and 0.20, 0.29 and 0.29 mg/100g, respectively, in Daber-noodle. It seemed that control-noodle sample was more acceptable followed by Daber-noodle samples while the millet-noodle samples were the last choice for the panellists. ANOVA proved that the different noodle samples were statistically significant, i.e. some samples are highly preferred by panellists while others are fairly accepted. Further studies should concern adding some additives to improve acceptability for millet-noodle and Daber-noodle.
Instant noodles is one of breakfast and staple food item of East Asian countries, whose consumption is gradually increasing day by day worldwide. Noodles, being a poor source of proteins due to use of refined flour in its production. Therefore, now it is an obligatory to fortify noodles with protein and fiber rich ingredients which will potentially enhance not only nutritional value but also functional characteristics. The present review focuses on fortification of protein and fiber rich ingredients in foods and its effects. The fortification could be optimized with the use of soy and like other protein rich ingredients as a source of protein. To uplift the fiber content, ingredients like Rice bran, Oat, Whole grains are being used. Although, fortification of soy in noodles would add nutraceutical values to noodles by isoflavones, phytosterols and oligosaccharides. Moreover, it balances essential amino acids of foods especially lysine. Cellulose, hemicelluloses, pectic substances, gums, resistant starch, inulin are existing as principle dietary fibers of cereals, legumes, fruits and vegetables. Fortification of foods with rice bran possibly replaces functional characteristics of noodles like water absorption capacity, water holding capacity, texture, gelling, thickening, emulsifying and stabilizing properties of noodles. Beyond the functional characteristics it contributes immense therapeutic benefits like, reduction of cholesterol, coronary heart diseases, diabetes, weight loss etc.
Quality Evaluation of Noodles Produced From Blends of Wheat, Unripe Banana and Cowpea Flours
Uniscience , 2023
Noodles were prepared from the flour blends and evaluated for the chemical composition, color, cooking characteristics and sensory properties. Noodles from 100% wheat flour served as control. The cowpea flour contained higher amount of protein while the unripe banana flour and wheat flour had higher levels of carbohydrate than the cowpea flour. The wheat flour had higher sodium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorous contents than the other flours, which were closely followed by those of the unripe banana flour. The moisture contents of the noodles varied from 9.15-11.25%. The ash contents of the noodles ranged between 1.03 and 1.80%.The crude fiber, fat and carbohydrate contents of the noodles increased with the level of cowpea flour in the noodles. The energy contents of the noodles ranged from 383.39-422.31Kcal/100g. The cooking time decreased from 10.50 min in wheat flour noodles to 7.50 min in the noodle containing 40% cowpea flour. However, the cooking loss and weight increased as the amount of cowpea flour in the noodles increased. The wheat flour noodles were rated higher for color, taste and overall acceptability but not for flavor and mouthfeel. The score for overall acceptability of the wheat flour noodle was 8.60 while those of the composite flour noodles containing 10 and 20% cowpea flour were 8.15 respectively on 9-point Hedonic scale. It is concluded that noodles could be produced from 70% wheat, 20% cowpea and 10% unripe banana flour blends without affecting the qualities of the noodles.

Instant noodles are generally one of the staple food eaten in many Asian countries. Instant noodles have become recognized globally and its global use is growing day by day. The quality attributes of instant noodles such as flavor, texture, convenience, safety and long shelf life make them attractive. In the current research, protein and fiber rich noodles were prepared by incorporation of soy and oats flour. Soya and Oats flour are used in the proportion of 1:1 respectively. Some other ingredients at different concentration like wheat flour, guar gum, maida, gelatin and corn starch at specific proportion were used. The chemical composition of selected noodles showed moisture content 9.2%, fat 0.19%, and ash content of 2.1% which reveals that it is a good source of nutrients in comparison with others. Moreover, the cooking qualities were also evaluated and it showed that cooking time of 8 min, swelling index 1.38 and water absorption 112.18 %. Final product was studied for its sensory evaluation up to 7 days at room temperature. It was found that product retained its sensory properties during the storage period and product was relished very much by panel of judges.
Modelling the effect of peanut and cowpea flour supplementation on quality of Chinese-type noodles
International Journal of Food Science & Technology, 2007
Chinese-type noodles were prepared from wheat flour fortified with 7-21% defatted peanut and 4-12% cowpea flours. A full factorial 4x4 design was used. Fifteen supplemented Chinese-type noodle formulae and a control sample were analysed for protein content and physical and sensory qualities. The protein content of noodles was increased as the level of peanutkowpea flours increased. Colour and cutting force of supplemented noodles were affected negatively by cowpea and peanut flours, respectively. Sensory scores for firmness and yellowness of supplemented Chinese-type noodles were decreased as the level of peanutkowpea flours increased. Computergenerated response surface and contour plot interpretations revealed that up to 15% peanut flour and 8% cowpea flour supplementation will produce acceptable supplemented Chinese noodles with high protein content (21%).
Structural and quality evaluation of soy enriched functional noodles
Food Bioscience, 2019
Physicochemical and functional properties of refined wheat flour (RWF), soy flour (SF), sorghum flour (SGF) as well as multigrain flour (MF) prepared with a blend of RWF (62.2%), SGF (24.6%) and SF (13.2%), were evaluated in relation to their noodles making potential. Results showed that MF did not differ significantly from RWF for its bulk density, swelling, water absorption and oil absorption capacity. However, the solubility score improved significantly (P ≤ 0.05) in the multigrain sample. Multigrain noodles showed a significant (P ≤ 0.05) improvement in nutritional and antioxidant profile when compared to refined wheat noodles. The glycemic index (GI) of refined wheat noodles was found to be 39 ± 0.1 which decreased significantly to 31 ± 0.1 for multigrain noodles. Cooking time, cooking loss and hardness values increased significantly for multigrain noodles as compared to refined wheat noodles. Scanning electron microscopy of multigrain noodles showed a more compact structure with less space between starch granules compared to the control noodles. FTIR showed the presence of identical functional groups (C-O-H, N-H, C-N, C]O, and O-H) in both the control and multigrain noodles samples, with higher intensity of absorption for multigrain noodles.
