TY - JOUR T1 - The effect of composition of hydrocolloids on properties of gluten-free bread A1 - Halina Gambuś A1 - Marek Sikora A1 - Rafał Ziobro JO - Acta Sci. Pol. Technol.

The evaluation of gluten-free breads supplemented with various amounts of guar gum, pectin and xanthan, proved that bread with addition of xanthan has higher volume in comparison with pectin-guar standard. Higher amount of xanthan resulted in a decrease of bread hardness on the day of baking and after 72 hours of storage. Bread baked with equal amounts of all hydrocolloids (recipe IV) displayed best quality parameters. The amount of free amylose in crumb extract depended on the extent of starch gelatinisation, influenced by proportions of pectin, guar gum and xanthan in the mixture of hydrocolloids. ER -
