Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 16Formulation of Gluten-Free Cookies Utilizing Chickpea, Carob, and Hazelnut Flours Through Mixture Design(MDPI, 2023) Doğruer, Ilgın; Başer, Filiz; Güleç, Şükrü; Tokatlı, Figen; Özen, BanuLegume flours, which offer high nutritional quality, present viable options for gluten-free bakery products. However, they may have an objectionable flavor and taste for some consumers. In this study, it was aimed to improve the gluten-free cookie formulation by incorporating carob and hazelnut flours to pre-cooked chickpea flour and to investigate the techno-functional properties of the formulated cookies. The flours used in the formulations were assessed for their chemical and physical properties. This study employed a mixture design (simplex-centroid) to obtain the proportions of the flours to be used in the cookie formulations. The rheological characteristics of the doughs and the technological attributes of the baked cookies were determined. The addition of the hazelnut and carob flours had the overall effect of reducing the rheological characteristics of the cookie doughs. Furthermore, the textural attribute of the hardness of the baked cookies decreased as the ratio of hazelnut flour in the formulations was raised. The analysed results and sensory evaluation pointed to a formulation consisting of 30% pre-cooked chickpea/30% carob/30% hazelnut flours, which exhibited improved taste and overall acceptability scores. A total of 16.82 g/100 g of rapidly digestible starch, 5.36 g/100 g of slowly digestible starch, and 8.30 g/100 g of resistant starch exist in this particular cookie. As a result, combinations of chickpea, hazelnut, and carob flours hold promise as good alternatives for gluten-free cookie ingredients and warrant further exploration in the development of similar products.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 17Techno-Functional and in Vitro Digestibility Properties of Gluten-Free Cookies Made From Raw, Pre-Cooked, and Germinated Chickpea Flours(MDPI, 2023) Doğruer, Ilgın; Çoban, Başak; Başer, Filiz; Güleç, Şükrü; Özen, BanuChickpea flour, which is produced in various forms, has high protein and fiber content; therefore, it can be a good ingredient for gluten-free cookies. The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the properties of cookies formulated using raw (RCF), cooked (CCF), and germinated (GCF) chickpea flours. The techno-functional properties of these flours were determined, and scanning electron microscope images and mid-infrared spectra were obtained. The rheological properties of cookie doughs were measured along with their mid-infrared spectra. Baked cookies were analyzed for their technological properties as well as their in vitro digestion properties. Sensory analysis was also performed for all the cookies. The most significant difference among the flours was observed in their water retention capacity, and CCF had 119.7% higher water retention capacity compared to RCF. The dough made with CCF had quite different rheological properties from the others. The cookies baked with GCF had the highest baking loss and spread ratio. The CCF-containing cookies had the hardest structure. The cookies made from RCF had a higher resistant starch content followed by the cookies with GCF. All the cookies had similar scores in all aspects tested in the sensory analysis. The use of three different forms of chickpea flour in cookie formulations resulted in products with very different properties; however, their overall acceptability levels were close.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3High-Pressure Processing of Traditional Hardaliye Drink: Effect on Quality and Shelf-Life Extension(MDPI, 2023) Atmaca, Bahar; Demiray, Merve; Akdemir Evrendilek, Gülsün; Bulut, Nurullah; Uzuner, SibelHardaliye, as one of the oldest and lesser known traditional beverages, is produced using red grape pomace from wine production. This drink production is achieved through lactic acid fermentation, with the addition of sour cherry leaves and mustard seeds-either heat-treated, grinded, or whole-in various concentrations. Hardaliye has a very short shelf life; thus, efforts have recently been made to process hardaliye with novel processing technologies in order to achieve shelf-life extension. Therefore, the high-hydrostatic-pressure (HHP) processing of hardaliye was performed to determine its impact on important properties, including in microbial inactivation and shelf-life extension, with respect to a Box-Behnken experimental design. Maximum log reductions of 5.38 & PLUSMN; 0.6, 5.10 & PLUSMN; 0.0, 5.05 & PLUSMN; 0.2, and 4.21 & PLUSMN; 0.0 with HHP were obtained for Brettanomyces bruxellensis, total mesophilic aerobic bacteria, Lactobacillus brevis, and total mold and yeast, respectively. The processing parameters of 490 MPa and 29 & DEG;C for 15 min were found as the optimal conditions, with the response variables of an optical density at 520 nm and the inactivation of L. brevis. The samples processed at the optimal conditions were stored at both 4 and 22 & DEG;C for 228 d. While the non-treated control samples at 4 and 22 & DEG;C were spoiled at 15 and 3 d, the HHP-treated samples were spoiled after 228 and 108 d at 4 and 22 & DEG;C, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 11Applications of Uv–visible, Fluorescence and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopic Methods Combined With Chemometrics for the Authentication of Apple Vinegar(MDPI, 2023) Çavdaroğlu, C.; Özen, B.Spectroscopic techniques as untargeted methods have great potential in food authentication studies, and the evaluation of spectroscopic data with chemometric methods can provide accurate predictions of adulteration even for hard-to-identify cases such as the mixing of vinegar with adulterants having a very similar chemical nature. In this study, we aimed to compare the performances of three spectroscopic methods (fluorescence, UV–visible, mid-infrared) in the detection of acetic-acid/apple-vinegar and spirit-vinegar/apple-vinegar mixtures (1–50%). Data obtained with the three spectroscopic techniques were used in the generation of classification models with partial least square discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) to differentiate authentic and mixed samples. An improved classification approach was used in choosing the best models through a number of calibration and validation sets. Only the mid-infrared data provided robust and accurate classification models with a high classification rate (up to 96%), sensitivity (1) and specificity (up to 0.96) for the differentiation of the adulterated samples from authentic apple vinegars. Therefore, it was concluded that mid-infrared spectroscopy is a useful tool for the rapid authentication of apple vinegars and it is essential to test classification models with different datasets to obtain a robust model. © 2023 by the authors.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 32Impact of Raw, Roasted and Dehulled Chickpea Flours on Technological and Nutritional Characteristics of Gluten-Free Bread(MDPI, 2022) Kahraman, Gökçen; Harsa, Hayriye Şebnem; Casiraghi, Maria Cristina; Lucisano, Mara; Cappa, CarolaThe main objective of this study was to develop a healthy rice-based gluten-free bread by using raw, roasted, or dehulled chickpea flours. All breads containing chickpea flours showed a darker crust and were characterized by an alveolar (porosity 41.5–51.4%) and soft crumb (hardness 5.5-14.1 N). Roasted chickpea flour bread exhibited the highest specific volume, the softest crumb, and the slowest staling rate. Enriching rice-based breads with the chickpea flours resulted in increased protein (from 9.72 to 12.03–13.21 g/100 g dm), ash (from 2.01 to 2.45–2.78 g/100 g dm), fat (from 1.61 to 4.58–5.86 g/100 g), and total phenolic contents (from 49.36 up to 80.52 mg GAE/100 g dm), and in reduced (~10–14% and 13.7–17%, respectively) available starch levels and rapidly digestible starch compared to rice bread. Breads with roasted chickpea flour also showed the highest in vitro protein digestibility. The results of this study indicated that the enrichment of rice-based gluten-free breads with chickpea flours improved the technological and nutritional quality of the breads differently according to the processed chickpea flour used, also allowing recovery of a waste product.
