Abstract
ABSTRACTThe impact of dietary fiber (DF) mixtures on dough thermal properties needs to be investigated when designing high‐fiber wheat bread. Effects of flour replacement at different levels (6–34%) by soluble (inuline [FN]), partially soluble (sugar beet [FX], pea cell wall [SW]), and insoluble (pea hull [EX]) DF on wheat dough thermal profiles have been investigated by simulating baking, cooling, and storage in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) pans. In general, DF incorporation into water‐flour systems delayed endothermic transition temperatures for both gelatinization and retrogradation phenomena except for the peak temperature (Tp) of retrogradation. With some exception, the pattern of the enthalpy of amylopectin retrogradation was lower and slower (lower constant of proportion, k) over 10 days of storage in gelatinized hydrated flour‐fiber blends when compared with control without DF. FX, a partially soluble fiber, provided major effects on gelatinization (Tp decrease and ΔH increase) and retrogradation kinetics (the Avrami exponent, n, increase). Single presence of EX allowed a significant reduction in the Avrami exponent n leading to slower kinetics for amylopectin retrogradation when included in the blends.
