Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effects of addition of acetic acid (0.05, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4%) and carboxymethyl cellulose (0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0%) on rheological, gas release and bread making properties of flour were examined. Water absorption, dough stability, dough development time, loaf volume and overall acceptability scores decreased, while degree of softening and bread firmness increased with an increase in acetic acid concentration. Addition of CMC showed similar effects on dough stability, dough development time and degree of softening. Maximum dough height (Hm), maximum height of CO2 production (H,m), gas formation and retention decreased with the increase in acetic acid and CMC levels. Addition of 0.05% of acetic acid in combination with 0.25% CMC was most effective in improving dough characteristics, and overall acceptability scores.
