Quality assessment of gluten-free foods with a focus on pasta
KRŮČKOVÁ, Adéla
This thesis deals with the evaluation of gluten-free pasta, with emphasis on gluten-free pasta made from legumes. In recent years, the interest in gluten-free diets has been growing, mainly because gluten-free diets are the only available cure for celiac disease so far. The first part of the thesis focuses on topics such as gluten-free foods and diet and diseases in which it is set - celiac disease and gluten allergy. Then the thesis focuses more specifically on gluten-free pasta made from legumes because of its optimal nutritional composition. The second part of the thesis focuses on the testing of pasta from a subjective point of view and then from an objective point of view. The first part deals with laboratory testing in which four types of gluten-free legume pasta are investigated, in three cooking tests. The second part focuses on sensory analysis in which two types of glutenfree legume pasta are evaluated, where both samples are made from lentil flour. Thus, the respondents evaluate the differences between these samples. In the final part of this thesis, the results of the laboratory testing and sensory evaluation are presented. As a result of the laboratory testing, it is found that it is not a matter of which type of legume the flour for gluten-free pasta is made from, but depends on the processing technique of the manufacturer. From the sensory evaluation it is concluded that two samples, despite having the same flour base are evaluated differently by the re-sponder. It depends again on the producer's production technology. The statistically different parameters for the respondents are colour intensity, colour pleasantness and hardness of the pasta after cooking.
