Blending pea flour (PF) with wheat flour (WT) can improve the nutritional profile of bakery products. In addition, the use of locally grown peas for food innovation activities can benefit the environment and the local economy. However, the pea milling process is of paramount importance and can affect the final flour quality. This study aims to evaluate the influence of different milling processes of Irish-grown peas on flour composition, spectral profile (Near Infrared - NIR), pasting properties and dough rheology. Three mills were used: roller (RM), hammer (HM) and cutting (CM) producing RM, HM and CM flours, respectively. A commercial strong wheat flour was used as the base flour. For producing doughs, wheat flour was blended with each pea flour at a 15:85 (pea: wheat). Flour composition, particle size, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), dough mixing properties, viscosity profile, gel texture, dough extensibility and rheology were assessed for the control, all pea flours and flour blends. The hammer mill produced the highest yield of pea flour (93.9 %). </span>Near Infrared Spectroscopy<span> reflected the same results for proximate composition, and the PCA and was able to discriminate the main differences between flour samples. SEM demonstrated that higher particle sizes obtained from the CM tended to have larger starch and protein matrix aggregates. Pea flour from the RM presented the highest viscosity profile and hardness, most likely due to the higher starch and lower total dietary fibre content. The lower pasting viscosity profile of pea flour obtained from CM is most likely due to a high level of damaged starch present in this flour. There were no significant differences found among WT and flour blends for gel hardness. This may imply that the incorporation of 15 % HM and CM flours perhaps will not impact the staling process of the final bread products. Further research is being undertaken to examine the influence of the pea milling process on bread-making performance.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":48640,"journal":{"name":"Food Structure-Netherlands","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50204225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The solubility, zeta potential and interfacial properties of LGI were evaluated at pH of 3.4 and 6.8 in the presence of NaCl or CaCl</span>₂. The solubility of LGI was dependent on the pH and type of salt, with lower solubility in the isoelectric region (pH ∼ 5), with lower solubility in the presence of NaCl (42.81 ± 1.23 %). The lowest value of interfacial tension was at pH 3.4 and absence of salts (41.79 ± 0.63 mN m⁻¹).

The rate of diffusion is highest at pH 6.8 under conditions without salts or in the presence of NaCl (0.57 ± 0.01 and 0.55 ± 0.05 mN m⁻¹ s^−0.5 respectively).

On the other hand, the protein adsorption rate is lower at pH 6.8 under all conditions studied.

Oleogels are liquid oils encapsulated within a thermoreversible, three-dimensional gel network using oleogelators such as waxes, monoglycerides, phospholipids<span>, and phytosterols<span>. Oleogels have been used extensively in numerous food formulations to reduce the amount of saturated and trans fatty acids. In recent decades, oleogel research has been active, producing numerous oleogels with desirable characteristics such as thermal resistance, texture, and structural stability. In addition, oleogels have been incorporated into several food matrices. In some instances, oleogels in these food products resemble the textural characteristics of products made with conventional hardstock fat, improve dietary nutrition, exhibit high physical and oxidative stability, and have a high oil-binding capacity. These advancements demonstrate the potential of oleogels, but certain disadvantages and a lack of in-depth information on various aspects have delayed their commercialization in the food industry. This narrative review aims to outline the preparation of oleogels, their application in selected food products, their digestibility, other applications of oleogels, such as bioactive delivery in wound healing and antibacterial properties, and the existing challenges in exploring oleogels.
