Evaluation of selected bakery products based on different processing technology and recipe
HRDLIČKOVÁ, Vanda
Together with the emerging trends of healthy lifestyle, organic products and organic farming, the domestic production of various food products and the fermentation process are becoming increasingly more important for the population. Fermentation technologies cover a wide range of products in the food industry or in other fields. The first references mentioning fermentation of flour and water (i.e. sourdough) date back to 1500 BC in ancient Egypt, and despite new doughraising technologies such as baker's yeasts, baking powder and baking soda, it is sourdough starter that is becoming popular not only for bakers but also for the whole population. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effect of the sourdough starter used on the quality of bakery products. The first part is devoted to a theoretical overview concerning fermentations, cereals, bakery products and their production technologies. The second part of the thesis was practical, where samples of the produced bakery products were evaluated by two methods based on the baking experiment, i.e. sensory analysis and physicochemical analysis. The thesis was also complemented by a questionnaire survey. Significant differences were found in the physicochemical parameters of yeast-leavened and sourdough leavened loaves of bread (acidity, bulk density, ageing symptoms). A positive effect of leavening was also demonstrated in the sensory analysis, in which the sourdough loaves of bread were rated better by the evaluators than the leavened bread samples.
