Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The effect of plantain powder on properties of the finished bakery product is investigated in the article. The organoleptic properties of the control bread sample without using of additives and samples with plantain powder from 3% to 9% were identified. Further, the mass fraction of moisture and acidity of the control sample and wheat bread with plantain powder were determined. As a result, it was found that the additive has an effect on wheat bread and its properties. The optimal dosage is powder in an amount of 3-5% to the total flour.

Introduction

Vegetable raw materials stipulate practical interest as a perspective component for development of functional food products.   Therefore, studies aimed at creating new varieties of functional bakery products using non-traditional plant raw materials of South Kazakhstan are of theoretical and practical interest.

Development of a scientifically based technology of bread using functional plantain powder is new issue. Plantain, which grows in South Kazakhstan, is an unconventional plant raw material for bread production.

The purpose of the study is to determine the organoleptic and physicochemical properties of bread in order to clarify the influence of plantain powder on quality indicators of the finished bakery product.

Materials and methods

Experimental studies were carried out in the laboratories of M.Auezov South Kazakhstan University, LLP "Dani nan".

Generally accepted and special physical, chemical, organoleptic methods for studying the properties of finished products have been applied in the study.

In the course of the study, 5 laboratory samples of bread were applied that prepared by batter method from premium flour with the addition of plantain powder in the amount of 3-9% of the total amount of flour.

 

Results and discussion

Organoleptic analysis permits to determine external qualities of wheat bread. A visual method based on perception of external view and color of an object has been applied for evaluation of appearance of investigated bread samples, as well as the porosity of the crumb.

A tactual method based on perception of smell by means of olfactory organ has been applied for determination elasticity of crumb.

A table with results of study of organoleptic properties of bread with plantain powder is below.

So, it may be concluded that samples of bread with adding of plantain powder had more intensive colour of crust, mouth-filling taste and aroma due to presence of tannins, organic acids, as well as contained enanth-ethyl and pellargon-ethyl ethers, which have a specific aroma characteristic of plantain powder.

In addition, in products with plantain powder the crumb porosity compare with control sample is smaller, more uniform and thin-walled, without emptiness and signs of cores in bread (non-loosened areas of the crumb); the color of the crumb is darker - from beige (addition of 3%) to light brown (addition of 5-7%) or brown (with the addition of powder in the amount of 9%); the crumb of fresh bread is soft, well-baked, not sticky and not wet to the touch, elastic, after light pressure with a finger it takes its original shape.

Also, a more intense color of the upper crust, a pleasant light aftertaste and a mild aroma of plantain powder are noted.

It should also be noted that with increasing amount of additives, finished products acquire a sweetish taste, which can be explained by the high content of sugars in ripe fruits - glucose, fructose, sucrose (up to 10.85%).

Determination of physicochemical parameters was carried out 3 hours after the products left the oven and no later than 24 hours, according to requirements for wheat bread made from high-quality flour.

The mass fraction of moisture is an indicator for assessing the quality of finished products. By the mass fraction of moisture in bread, it is possible to judge its energy value. The higher mass fraction of moisture, the lower content of dry substances of bread and the lower its energy value.

High moisture reduces calorie content and deteriorates quality of bread. Bread becomes heavier and less absorbed by the body. Such bread is more quickly exposed to mold, diseases and easily deformed. Low moisture content of bread leads to the fact that it becomes dry, quickly stale, and its taste deteriorates. Moisture content of different products ranges from 34 to 51%.

Mass fraction of bread is determined for calculation its yield and checking correctness of conducting of technological process - accuracy of dosing of basic raw material, flour and water. When mass fraction of moisture of bread is increased for 1%, its yield will rise for 2-3%.

Determination of mass fraction of crumb moisture was carried out by drying out of the sample in a drying oven at definite conditions and expressed in percentage:

Humidity (W) in percentage is calculated by the equation:

 

  W=  · 100%                                                                                                          (1)

 

where m1 - weight of casserole before drying, g;

m2 — weight of casserole after drying, g;

m — mass of sample, g.

 

The arithmetic average of results of two parallel determinations is taken as the final result.

 

Figure 1 - Mass fraction of bread moisture

 

Based on the data obtained, a diagram of dependence of moisture content on the amount of applied powder is presented (Fig. 1).

According to Figure 1, it can be seen that with increasing of amount of added plantain powder, the moisture content of the finished products decreases, which permits to make a conclusion about increasing of amount of dry substances, as well as an increasing of energy value of bread.

Acidity of bread was determined in order to assess the correctness of the technological process, also the taste of wheat bread. Acidity of bread is mainly stipulated by products obtained in a result of dough fermentation process. Acidity is expressed in degrees of acidity.

Acidity of flour was calculated by the equation:

 

   X =  = 2V                                                                                                         (2)

 

where: V — volume of 0,1 mol/dm3 alkali solution spent for titration, сm3;

 m — weight of bread sample, g;

100 — coefficient for conversion per 100 g of product;

10 — the coefficient for converting 0.1 mol/dm3 of sodium hydroxide solution into 1 mol / dm3 solution.

Based on the data obtained, a diagram of dependence of acidity on amount of added powder is presented (Fig. 2).

Figure 2- Bread acidity

 

It is seen from Figure 2, that with addition of 3% of plantain powder the acidity of finished product increased for 0.2 grad compare to the control sample without additive.  When 5% plantain powder is added, the acidity of the finished product also increases by 0.2 degrees compared to the control one. Adding 7 and 9% of plantain powder to the total mass of flour increases the acidity of the bread by 0.4 degrees in comparison with the control sample.

According to the data obtained, it can be concluded that an increase in the amount of added additives increases the acidity of finished products slightly. All the values ​​obtained are within the limits of the norms, the indicator of which should not exceed 3g, for bread made from wheat flour of the highest grade, in accordance with the requirements of the standards.

 

Conclusion

 

A study of influence of plantain powder on properties of wheat bread was carried out. Analysis of finished samples of the studied bread showed that bread samples with addition of plantain powder have a more intense color of crusts, a rich taste and aroma. In addition, products with addition of powder have a finer, more uniform and thin-walled crumb porosity, without emptiness and signs of cores in bread. In this case, the crumb acquires a darker color - from beige to light brown or brown. It was also revealed that with increasing of amount of added powder, finished products acquire a sweetish taste.

When studying the effect of plantain powder on physicochemical indicators of quality of finished bread, it was found that with an increase in amount of additive, the moisture content of finished products decreases, which indicates an increase in content of dry substances, as well as an increase in energy value of bread. It was found that acidity index of finished bread also increases with rising of amount of applied powder. This improves the freshness of bread.

According to organoleptic and physicochemical indicators of quality of bread with additives, the optimal doses of plantain powder in the amount of 3-5% to the total mass of flour have been established.
