Abstract
<p><em>Functional properties of sausage rolls made from cocoyam and wheat flour enriched with soybean flour was studied. Cocoyam cormels and soybean were processed into flour, which were later used to formulate composite flour blends, with wheat flour in the ratio of: 90:10:0 (control 1), 80:10:10, 70:10:20, 60:10:40, 50:10:30, respectively, while 0:10:90 served as control 2. The result of the functional properties showed variation in behavior. There were no significant difference (p?0.05) in pH, bulk density, swelling index, foam capacity and emulsion capacity of the flour samples while significant difference (p?0.05) existed in water absorption capacity, oil absorption capacity and wettability.</em></p>

Sausage roll is a British savory snack, popular in Commonwealth nations and beyond
The main objective of the study was to determine the functional properties of sausage rolls made from cocoyam and wheat flour blends enriched with soybeans
The flour was packed and sealed in polyethylene bags until analyzed. 2.4 Formulation of Flour Blend Six blends of composite flour were prepared by mixing cocoyam flour, soybean flour and wheat flour in the percentage ratio of 90:10:0, 80:10:10, 70:10:20, 60:10:30, 50:10:40and 0:10:90 respectively. (90:10:0) and (0:10:90) served as control. 2.5 Sausage Roll Preparation The formulated flour blend samples were used in producing sausage roll respectively
Summary
Sausage roll is a British savory snack, popular in Commonwealth nations and beyond (http://www.wikipedia.com/what-is-sausage-roll/). The basic composition of a sausage roll is sheets of puff pastry formed into tubes around sausage meat. The pastry is glazed with egg or milk before being baked (http://www.foodnetwork.com/sausage-roll-recipe/html). Sausage roll in the modern sense of meat, surrounded by rolled pastry, appears to have been conceived at the beginning of 19th century in France. Sausage rolls are popular and widely consumed all over the world by people of all ages. They are traditionally made from wheat, a cereal, which is cultivated in many parts of the world.
