Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop functional bread containing Portulaca oleracea L. (0%, 1%, 3% or 5%). The weight was higher in the bread with Portulaca oleracea L. (POL), compared with the control bread. The height and volume were lower in the bread containing POL. As the concentration of POL increased, the pH decreased and the acidity increased. The sugar concentration () and reducing sugar (%) decreased with increasing amounts of POL. On the hunter color system, L (lightness) and a (redness) values for the crumbs of breads with more POL were lower, but the b (yellowness) value was higher. Total phenolic compound contents increased with the addition of POL. Antioxidant activities such as DPPH and hydroxy radical scavenging activity for the breads with POL increased with increasing POL. The sensory test results showed that the over-all preference score for the breads containing POL were higher than those of the control.
