Technological and senzorical quality of grain and baking products from spelt wheat
KYPTOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis deals with the baking quality of the spelt wheat grain (Triticum spelta L.) compared with common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Mixed flours were made of different share of spelt wheat and common wheat (in total 11 mixtures). The technological quality of these mixtures was analyzed, focusing on standard evaluation methods (protein content, characteristic of gluten or swellability of protein). The analysis was supplemented by complete rheological analysis made by MIXOLAB II. Bread was used as a model product. Subsequently, sensory evaluation of baked bread from the previously prepared mixtures was done. Part of the analysis was to estimate the economic basic bread recipe with different proportions of common wheat and spelt wheat. The results were statistically analyzed via STATISTICA 9.1 (StatSoft, Inc., USA). It was proved that the flour made of spelt can give cereal products with higher nutritional value. From a technological point of view, the results have shown that the spelt grain is much more suitable for baking. Its advantage is the higher protein content and higher resistence of kneading of the dough and starch gelatinization rate, which was statistically confirmed by Tukey HSD test. The other benefits of spelt grain is the higher nutritional value in comparsion to common wheat grain. The main disadvantage is the higher price of spelt. According to the results, the ideal utilization of spelt wheat based on sensory analysis and economic calculations seems to be the mixture of spelt wheat and bread wheat, which results in an undenieble decrease of the product cost, and hence effects the common customer choice and taste preferences.
