摘要
In order to explore the possibility of using WPC as a functional ingredient in Indian traditional product – South Indian Parotta investigations were made to study the effect of replacement of wheat flour with 5, 10 and 15%WPC on the farinograph, extensograph, amylograph characteristics of wheat flour, quality of parotta and microstructure of baked parotta. The results showed an increase in farinograph stability, extensograph resistance to extension up to 10%WPC and a decrease in the farinograph water absorption, extensograph extensibility, amylograph peak viscosity, cold paste viscosity, breakdown and setback values with an increase in the level of WPC from 0%to 15%. The quality characteristics of parotta showed that the spread ratio decreased and shear force values increased significantly above 5%level. Control parotta and parotta with 5%WPC were soft, possessed thin and transparent layers whereas parottas beyond 5%WPC had thick, fused and opaque layers. The parottas with 5%WPC were rated good. The quality characteristics of parotta were adversely affected beyond 5%level of WPC. The microstructure of the top and middle layer of baked parotta with 5%WPC showed that there was a disruption in the continuity of the gluten matrix.
