The present study was carried out to demonstrate the combined effects of different maize flour, ascorbic acid and sugar on the physical, textural and sensory properties of composite breads. The composite flour was prepared using 70% of wheat flour and 30% of flour obtained from grain of differently colored maize-light blue, blue, red and yellow maize flour. Chemical characterization of composite flours made with four different types of maize was also assessed. Furthermore, the content of total phenolics, flavonoids, anthocyanins, phenolic acids and antioxidant capacity in composite flours was determined. A total of 12 breads were prepared, four of which were control composite breads, four breads with ascorbic acid, and four were breads with ascorbic acid and sugar. The content of total phenolic compounds showed clear differences among all composite flours. The anthocyanins content determined in composite flours was in the following descending order: blue>red>light blue, while in the yellow maize composite flour anthocyanins were not detected. The results showed that the addition of AsA (0.025%) and sugar (5%) negatively affected the volume as well as the specific volume of composite wheat-maize breads. The texture analysis showed that the addition of AsA in the amount of 0.025% had no impact on springiness, cohesiveness and resilience of bread crumb, while it increased crumb hardness. However, composite breads made with AsA and AsA/sugar showed a more compact structure, with a larger number of cells and smaller mean cell areas. AsA/sugar bread samples within the tested doses had the lowest springiness, which is indicative of brittleness and reflects the tendency of the bread to crumble when slicing. Results of the sensory evaluation revealed that the AsA and sugar addition had a generally positive effect on the investigated sensory attributes. U ovom radu, ispitivan je zajednički uticaj brašna kukuruza različite boje zrna, askorbinske kiseline i šećera na fizička, teksturna i senzorna svojstva mešanog pšenično- kukuruznog hleba. Smeša brašna je pripremljena od 70% pšeničnog brašna i 30% brašna dobijenog od različito obojenog kukuruznog zrna – svetloplavog, plavog, crvenog i žutog. Izvršena je i hemijska karakterizacija pšenično-kukuruznih smeša brašna. U pšenično- kukuruznim smešama brašna određen je sadržaj ukupnih fenola, flavonoida, antocijana, fenolnih kiselina i antioksidativni kapacitet. Ukupno je pripremljeno 12 hlebova, od kojih su četiri bila kontrolna, četiri sa askorbinskom kiselinom i četiri hleba sa askorbinskom kiselinom i šećerom. Sadržaj ukupnih fenolnih jedinjenja pokazao je jasne razlike između svih pšenično-kukuruznih smeša brašna. Sadržaj antocijana je u smešama pšenično- kukuruznog brašna imao sledeći opadajući redosled: smeša sa plavim kukuruzom>crvenim kukuruzom>svetlo plavim kukuruzom, dok u smeši pšeničnog brašna i brašna žutog kukuruza antocijani nisu detektovani. Rezultati su pokazali da je dodatak askorbinske kiseline (0,025%) i šećera (5%) negativno uticao na zapreminu kao i na specifičnu zapreminu mešanih pšenično-kukuruznih hlebova. Analiza teksture je pokazala da dodatak askorbinske kiseline u količini od 0,025% nije uticao na elastičnost, kohezivnost i elastičnost sredine hleba, ali je povećao tvrdoću sredine. Međutim, mešani pšenično-kukuruzni hlebovi sa dodatkom askorbinske kiseline i askorbinske kiseline i šećera, su pokazali kompaktniju strukturu sa većim brojem pora. Uzorci hleba sa askorbinskom kiselinom i šećerom u ispitivanim dozama imali su najmanju elastičnost, što ukazuje na krtost i odražava se na mrvljenje hleba prilikom sečenja. Rezultati senzorne analize pokazali su da je dodatak askorbinske kiseline i šećera generalno imao pozitivan uticaj na ispitivana senzorna svojstva. |
