Formation Of Maillard Reaction Products And Chlorogenic Acid-Quinone Induced Green Pigments In Gluten-Free Pretzels Made Using Sunflower Flour, Rashi Bhatnagar
Food Science (MS) Theses
The two color-developing reactions that occur when soft pretzels are baked using sunflower flour (SFF) in aqueous alkali environment are chlorogenic acid (CGA)-quinone induced greening and Maillard browning. This study aimed to determine how CGA content in two different SFFs containing 45% and 55% protein (Heliaflor® 45 and 55, respectively) affected the formation of green trihydroxybenzacridine (TBA) and Maillard reaction products (MRPs) in soft baked pretzels. Pretzels were baked with five doughs prepared using a pre-blended gluten-free flour, consisting of sweet white rice flour, whole grain brown rice flour, potato starch, whole grain sweet white sorghum flour, tapioca flour, …
