The effect of pectin substances on the activation of starters for rye-wheat mini bread

Abstract

Bread is a good alternative to creating functional products, as it is in demand among the entire population. The authors presented the theme of improving the formulation of rye-wheat mini-bread by activating production starters with apple (citrus) pectin for catering. The aim is to develop the formulation and technology of rye-wheat mini-bread for catering using pectin substances to activate production starters. The «Darnitsky» bread formulation which includes industrial rye sourdough starter has been taken as a basis for the creation of starters activated by pectin substances – apple and citrus ones (1, 3 and 5% to the flour weight). Two top-samples have been identified hop starters activated by apple and citrus pectin (5%). As a result of proofing, a hop yeast sample activated by apple pectin (5%) has been indicated; its lifting activity significantly exceeds the activity of other samples. The rise of the semi-finished product with the topsample was achieved after 45 minutes, 10...15 minutes faster than others. The quality of mini bread corresponds to GOST 26983-2015. Microbiological safety is confirmed by laboratory tests. As a result of the research, mini-bread with the addition of hop ferment activated by apple pectin (5%) has become an absolute leader.
