Physicochemical quality of biscuits in various compositions of wheat flour, dangke flour and sago flour

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020

Biscuits are processed food products made from flour; however, the supply of the flour depends heavily on foreign producers. This study aimed to examine the use of dangke flour and sago flour to substitute wheat flour in biscuit formulations. The design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) of one factor. The treatments of the compositions of wheat flour, dangke flour, and sago flour (%) in the biscuit formulation were100: 0: 0; 80: 20: 0; 60:30:10; 40:40:20; 20:50:30; and 0:60:40 respectively. The results showed that the compositions of wheat flour, dangke flour, and sago flour had very significant effects (p<0.01) on water content, dissolved protein, aroma, texture and preference but had no significant effects on yield and biscuit fat. The best composition of wheat flour, dangke flour and sago flour was 0:60:40 in the formulation. The produced biscuits had a yield of 84.16%, a moisture content of 1.96%, dissolved protein of 19.26%, fat content of 9.55%, flavor of 6.18%,...

Physico-Chemical Investigations of Biscuits Supplemented with Rye Flour

2019

The chemical composition of rye flour can be a good indicator of the bread quality. In this study, the rye flour was mixed with wheat flour in ratios of 10%, 25% and 50%. The chemical parameters (moisture, ash, fat contents and alkalinity) and the physical parameters (diameter, thickness, weight and spread factor) of the biscuits have been analysed. The results of the chemical analysis showed variable results, such as the increase of the fat and ash contents, and the decrease of the moisture content and of the alkalinity. In terms of physical characteristics, the samples generally presented some differences. The Pearson coefficient showed that there is a strong correlation between the width of the biscuits and the proportion of added rye flour, and a weak correlation between the spread ratio and the amount of rye flour that is used.

Biscuit making potentials of flours from wheat and plantain at different stages of ripeness

The biscuit making potentials of wheat and plantain (stages 1 and 3 ripeness) flour blends were evaluated. Composite flours were formulated using wheat (white) and plantain flour in ratio 90/10 1 , 80/20 1 , 50/50 1, 100/0, 90/10 3 , 80/20 3 and 50/50 3 at stages 1 and 3 respectively with the superscripts representing the stage of ripeness. The functional properties of the flours, proximate composition, mineral composition and sensory attributes of the biscuit were evaluated. The loose bulk density (LBD) of flours ranged from 0.46-0.53 g/mL, the packed bulk density (PBD) ranged from 0.64-0.76 g/mL. The water absorption capacity (WAC) ranged from 1.19-2.02 g water/g flour and oil adsorption capacity (OAC) ranged from 0.50-1.00 g oil/g flour. The LBD and PBD values of the composite blends were higher than the control (100 % white wheat flour-sample D). The proximate composition ranged from 11.00 %-9.96 % for moisture, 1.21 %-1.27 % for ash, 2.98 %-4.30 % for fat, 11.82 %-12.64 % for protein, 0.97 %-1.52 % for fibre and 69.56 %-71.21 % for carbohydrate. The protein and carbohydrate value of biscuit produced from composite flour 80/20 3 (sample F) was significantly (P ≤ 0.05) lower than other biscuits. Composite flour 50/50 3 had the highest protein content (12.64 %). The observed mineral composition varied among the samples. The content of calcium, iron and phosphorus ranged from 5.89-6.14, 0.48-0.78 and 21.97-23.46 mg/100g respectively. The calcium and iron contents of biscuit produced from flour blends F was significantly (P ≤ 0.05) higher than other biscuits, while the phosphorus content of biscuit produced from composite flour 90/10 1 (sample C) was higher than other biscuit samples. Sensory evaluation of the formulated biscuit samples showed similar sensory attributes with the control.

Production and Quality Evaluation of Biscuits from Blends of Wheat, Millet and Sesame Seeds Composites: Functional and Nutrients Characteristics

International Journal of Nutrition and Food Sciences

Biscuits produced were analysed for physical properties, and sensory attributes. Sensory evaluation of the biscuits samples was carried out with a team of thirty (30) panellists. The hedonic scale of nine was used, and the panellists were instructed to evaluate the coded samples for appearance, taste, aroma, texture, and Overall acceptability with a reference sample A. Biscuit samples were evaluated for weight (g), diameter (cm), thickness (cm) and spread ratio. Six biscuits edge-to-edge were used for the evaluation and the average was noted. The weight was measured using an electronic scale; diameter and thickness were measured using a Vernier Caliper. The Spread ratio was calculated by dividing diameter by thickness. There was a significant difference in weight, diameter, and spread ratio. Furthermore, there was a general decrease in the weight of the biscuits, with values ranging from 10.950g to 9.600 g with increase in the proportion of millet flour. However, there was an increase in diameter and spread factor as well as a decrease in thickness with increase in millet flour, with values ranging from 4.312 to 4.733 cm, 4.288 to 4.729 and 1.006 to 1.001 cm respectively. The sensory evaluation of the biscuits revealed that there were no significant differences in aroma and taste between the treatments whereas there was a significant difference in appearance, texture and general acceptability. Sensory results showed that all biscuits samples were accepted by panelists.
