A high-protein, low-carbohydrate bakery product comprising a first proteinaceous ingredient and a second proteinaceous ingredient selected from the group consisting of wheat protein isolate, wheat protein concentrate, devitalized wheat gluten, fractionated wheat protein, deamidated wheat gluten, hydrolyzed wheat protein, and combinations thereof are provided. Preferred bakery products further comprise an amount of resistant starch which replaces a portion of digestible carbohydrate therein.

摘要:
Precooked and partially debranned corn flour is continuously produced by an enzymatic precooking using a commercial endoxylanase and endoamylase blend as a processing aid. The low-temperature and near neutral-pH precooking with an endoxylanase and endoamylase solution effects a partial hydrolysis of bran and starchy cell-walls with a controlled gelatinization and reduced conditioning and corn solid loss in wastewater. Moisture content is then stabilized after washing, followed by milling and drying at a high temperature for a short time to produce a partial gelatinization in the ground kernel, cooling and further drying the dried-milled particle. A fine particle size or flour is separated and recovered from the coarser particle which is also segregated to isolate a light bran fraction for integral flour or feed use, remilling and sieving the coarser particle to produce an instant corn flour for snack chip and corn-based food, and admixing the fine particle with lime to obtain a masa flour for tortillas and the like.

There is a dough composition. The dough composition has flour, shortening, water, and a leavening system. The leavening system has a leavening base and leavening acid. The leavening acid is a combination selected from the group consisting of 1) sodium aluminum phosphate and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate; 2) sodium aluminum phosphate and sodium acid pyrophosphate; 3) sodium acid pyrophosphate and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate; 4) sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate; 5) sodium aluminum sulfate and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate; and 6) sodium aluminum sulfate and sodium acid pyrophosphate. The sodium acid pyrophosphate exhibits an evolved percentage of carbon dioxide of about 30 or less at room temperature prior to baking. The slower reacting of the leavening acids in the combination is at least 15 wt % of the total weight of the acid combination. There are also methods for making tortillas.
摘要:
Baked, corn-based, chip-like snacks having a plurality of surface bubbles comprising air pockets extending both above and below the substantially unleavened, adjacent portions of the snack are obtained with a pregelatinized waxy starch, a pregelatinized corn flour and baker's bran. The pregelatinized waxy starch forms the skin of the bubble. The pregelatinized corn flour aids in production of bubbles during baking and enhances corn flavor in the baked snacks. The baker's bran provides the baked corn-based chip-like snack with a rough appearance characteristic of tortilla chips. The pregelatinized waxy maize starch may be used in an amount of from about 5% by weight to about 25% by weight, the pregelatinized corn flour may be used in an amount of from about 5% by weight to about 20% by weight, and the baker's bran may be used in an amount of from about 0.1% by weight to about 10% by weight each based upon the weight of a corn flour having a degree of gelatinization of less than about 60%. Reduced fat, low-fat, and no-fat baked products, as well as full-fatted baked products, may be produced with a bubbled surface, and a crispy, crunchy, non-mealy, chip-like texture, but with a corn tortilla flavor.
摘要:
There is provided a process for the preparation of a modified masa foodstuff, the process comprising the steps of (i) preparing a masa by nixtamalisation of corn (ii) contacting a reducing agent or an enzyme with (a) the masa, and/or (b) the corn prior to nixtamalisation; such that a protein native to the corn is modified.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for making uniformly shaped snack food chips which can be stacked for packaging, e.g., in a cylindrical canister or a canister which conforms to the contour or perimeter of the snack food chips. The apparatus features two-part mold cavities in which chip preforms are restrained and transported through hot oil to be cooked. Preferably, the mold cavities are defined between a pair of rotating belts, one lower belt and one upper belt, which together nullencasenull or nullsandwichnull and thereby restrain the chips. According to the method, a continuous sheet of dough is toasted and then proofed before being cut into individual chip preforms. The preforms are then placed into the mold cavities and transported through hot oil to be cooked. Vacuum transfer rollers are used to facilitate placement of the chip preforms into the mold cavities and extraction of the cooked chips from the mold cavities.null
摘要:
Precooked and partially-dehulled masa flour for tortilla and the like is produced by pressure pre-cooking in a continuous process with saturated-steam. The precooking effects corn hull hydrolysis and partial cooking with a lime solution, reduced kernel washing and solid loss in wastewater. Next, moisture content is stabilized, and the corn is ground and dried in a super-heated stream of air to produce a partial cooking, cooling and further drying of the dried-ground particles. Separating and recovering yields the fine grind or masa flour from the coarse grind which is segregated to isolate a hull fraction as corn hull waste. Reground coarse grind is sieved to produce further yield of the instant masa flour. The flour is well suited for use in making tortilla and other corn-based snack foods.
