Abstract
ABSTRACTWheat flours were stored at room temperature (15–25°C), 40, 60, 80, and 100°C for various times. The baking performance of these flours was then evaluated in terms of the springiness of pancakes (recovery from crushing). Baking performance improved with increased storage time at each temperature. Brabender Amylograph tests of the flours indicated that the onset temperature in viscosity decreased with increased storage time at each temperature. When the flours were fractionated by acetic acid (pH 3.5) with mortar and pestle, recoveries of the water‐solubles and gluten fractions were unchanged, but recoveries of prime starch and tailings fractions changed remarkably with increased storage time. On the other hand, those changes were not observed when flours were fractionated with a Waring blender. The binding of prime starch to tailings was correlated significantly with baking performance.
