Abstract

The research aimed to determine green tea powder's total protein, phenolic content, and vitamin C. The results were protein1.12%, phenolic content 143 mg / 100g and vitamin C 68 mg / 100g respectively. Beside. The functional properties were also determined. According to the results, green tea powder had a high water holding capacity of 254% and an oil holding capacity of 214% compared with wheat flour. The research also determined the effect of replacing wheat flour with green tea powder at 5%, 7.5% and 10%. The results showed that sponge cake made from green tea at level 5% was higher in short compared with the other sample and control. The hardness of sponge cakes decreased from 700 g, 550 g – 400 g, 350g, to 340 g with an increased additional level of green tea powder. The sponge cake was stored at 25-30Cº for 8 days. The results showed that the peroxide value increased during storage; a high peroxide value was observed in the control sponge cake from 0.4 to 7 liquid Kg. In contrast, low peroxide values ranged from 0.2 to 1 liquid.Kg in sponge cake containing green tea 10%.The results demonstrated that green tea could be a good source of antioxidants in food industries. Keywords: phenolic, vitamin C. water holding capacity, sensory evaluation, hardness
