Abstract

The effect of microbial polysaccharide xanthan in the amount of 0.1-0.4% on the rheological characteristics of the dough from sprouted wheat grain and quality indicators of bread was studied. It was found that when xanthan gum is added, the dough's spreading and adhesion strength decreases, and the dough's resilience-elastic and plastic-viscous characteristics improve. Bread made from sprouted wheat grains with the addition of experimental dosages of xanthan has better structural-mechanical and physicochemical properties, as evidenced by higher indicators of crumb compressibility, specific volume, and moisture compared to the control sample. To obtain bread with the best quality indicators, it is recommended to use 0.3% xanthan.
