Abstract
The effects of SHP on the texture, rheological properties, starch crystallinity and microstructure of frozen dough were investigated. The efficacy of SHP in enhancing dough quality is concentration-dependent, with frozen dough containing 1.5% SHP exhibiting hardness comparable to fresh dough without SHP (221.31 vs. 221.42 g). Even at 0.5% SHP, there is a noticeable improvement in frozen dough quality. The rheological results showed that the viscoelasticity of dough increased with higher SHP concentration. What's more, XRD and SEM results indicated that the SHP's hydrophilicity reduces the degree of starch hydrolysis, slows down the damage of starch particles during freezing, and consequently lowers the crystallinity of starch. Additionally, CLSM observations revealed that SHP enhances the gluten network structure, diminishing the appearance of holes. Therefore, the physical, chemical properties, and microstructure of frozen dough with SHP demonstrate significant enhancement, suggesting SHP's promising antifreeze properties and potential as a food antifreeze agent.
