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.

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.

Effect of Chickpea and Okara Composite Flours on the Quality of Instant Noodles

Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Social, Applied Science and Technology in Home Economics (ICONHOMECS 2017), 2018

The study has utilized chickpea and okara composite flours and produced best formulation based on sensory and physicochemical characteristics. Formulation of F3 which comprised of 75% of wheat flour, 12.5% of chickpea flour and 12.5% of okara flour was selected as the best formulation. The qualities of best formulation and control were compared through proximate analysis, dietary fiber, energy content and cooking qualities. F3 was better than control in terms of significantly higher ash, crude protein, crude fiber contents and significantly lower crude fat, carbohydrates and energy contents, and it also rich in dietary fiber (10.05g/100g). Furthermore, F3 has significantly higher cooking yield, longer optimal cooking time, lower rehydration rate and higher cooking loss. The storage quality of the best formulation's accelerated shelf life study for eight months was evaluated via water activity test, physicochemical tests, microbiological and sensory tests. The increased in water activity and decreased in pH value, reduced brightness, increased redness and yellowness of noodles, reduced tensile strength and changes in the textural properties. Nonetheless, the noodles were still safe to be consumed and accepted by the panellists. To conclude, the incorporation of chickpea and okara flours into the instant noodles boosts the nutrient contents but results in poorer textural properties. Further study regarding the alternatives to improve the textural properties of the noodles would be worthwhile.

African Journal of Food Science, 2021

Wheat flour commonly used in making noodles is rich in starch but poor in protein and fiber. Wheat flour substituted with soybean and carrot pomace flours were used to produce instant fried noodles. Soybean is high in protein while carrot pomace is rich in dietary fiber. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of substituting wheat flour with soybean and carrot pomace flour on the physicochemical, cooking and sensory properties of instant fried noodles. Four flour blends in ratios of 100:0:0, 80:15:5, 70:20:10, 60:25:15 wheat, soybean and carrot pomace flour respectively were prepared. The results indicated a significant difference (P<0.05) in protein and crude fiber content of the noodles made from the flour blends. The cooking loss and water absorption increased with increase in the amount of substituted soybean and carrot pomace flour. There was no significant difference in the tensile strength among noodles. However, breaking length of the noodles decreased with increase in replacement of soybean and carrot pomace flour. The noodles decreased in brightness with increased carrot pomace substitution. Noodles made from 80% wheat flour, 15% soybean flour and 5% carrot pomace were the most preferred by the sensory panelist. Incorporation of soybean flour and carrot pomace flour improved the nutritional quality and sensory attributes of the instant fried noodles.
