Background and objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of semi-wet and wet ground rice flours from MR253 rice variety on the cooking, textural, and sensorial qualities of dry rice noodle (laksa noodle). This rice flour is classified as a medium group of amylose content of 20.27% in semiwet and 20.59% in wet, respectively. Findings: Pearson correlation analysis of these flours implies that amylose content, percentage of damaged starch granule, and water absorption of rice flour incorporated in the formulation and production greatly influences both the dry and cooked (wet) rice noodles' textural and cooking qualities. Sensory analysis showed that there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) with regard to taste, aroma, and appearance between commercial and experimental noodles. Conclusions: Experimental laksa rice noodles produced using semi-wet and wet ground flours have better quality since it attained significantly (p < 0.05) higher scores of texture and overall acceptability attributes. Significance and novelty: This research explores the possibility of semi-wet grinding method of laboratory scale which had not been extensively studied and the usage and application of new Malaysian hybrid rice variety of MR253.

Three different grinding techniques (dry, semi-wet, and wet) were employed in rice flour production. Investigation on the effects of the grinding techniques on starch damage percentage, particle size distribution, pasting profiles, morphological and textural properties of rice flours produced were evaluated. Wet grinding resulted in significantly (p< 0.05) has lower percentage of damaged starch (3.24 %) than other grinding methods. Morphological studies (microscopy and particle size analysis) have reflected significant differences among rice flours granule shapes. The granules displaying different shapes of polygonal, round and angular forms, with some as an individual granule while others tend to attached together. Wet grinding technique also yielded flour that exhibit significantly (p< 0.05) with higher gel hardness (16.62 g). Pasting profiles showed that pasting temperature for rice flour produce using these three grinding methods varied between 80.15 -80.42 °C. Results revealed that the three grinding techniques clearly affected the physicochemical properties of rice flour. The results from this study play an important role in the selection criteria of rice flour with desirable pasting and textural properties for manufacturing rice-based product.Keywords: Grinding techniques, particle size, pasting profiles, rice flour, starch damage Abstrak Tiga jenis teknik pengisaran (kering, separa basah, dan basah) telah digunakan dalam penghasilan tepung beras. Kajian ke atas kesan teknik pengisaran pada peratusan kerosakan kanji, taburan saiz partikel, profil pempesan, sifat morfologi dan tekstur tepung beras yang dihasilkan telah dianalisa. Pengisaran basah menyebabkan peratusan kanji rosak (p< 0.05) lebih rendah secara signifikan (3.24 %) berbanding kaedah -kaedah pengisaran lain. Kajian morfologi (mikroskopi dan analisis saiz zarah) telah menunjukkan perbezaan yang signifikan antara tepung beras dari segi saiz dan bentuk granul yang terhasil. Granul memaparkan bentuk berlainan seperti poligon, bulat dan bentuk bersudut, samada wujud sebagai granul sendirian ataupun berkluster. Teknik pengisaran basah juga menghasilkan perbezaan yang signifikan (p< 0.05) berbanding teknik pengisaran lain dari segi kekerasan gel yang lebih tinggi (16.62 g). Profil pempesan menunjukkan suhu pempesan untuk tepung beras yang dihasilkan menggunakan ketiga -tiga kaedah pengisaran berada dalam julat antara 80.15 -80.42 °C. Hasil kajian dengan jelas menunjukkan bahawa tiga teknik pengisaran memberi kesan kepada ciri -ciri fizikokimia tepung beras. Hasil kajian ini sangat penting dalam menentukan kriteria tepung beras berdasarkan sifat dan sifat tekstur yang dikehendaki untuk pembuatan produk berasaskan beras.Kata kunci: Teknik pengisaran, saiz partikel, profil pempesan, tepung beras, kerosakan kanji
Sago starch (Metroxylon sagu) and Gelose 80 was chemically esterified with Octenyl Succinic Anhydride (OSA) to produce hydrophobically starch which can act as emulsifier in oil-in-water emulsion (O/W). The modification of sago starch and Gelose 80 was conducted in aqueous phase following the optimum parameter: OSA concentration 5.0%, pH 7.20 and reaction time of 9.65 h. The study was conducted to investigate the morphological properties, particle size and surface activity of octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modified sago starch. The OSA sago starch had a degree of substitution (DS) of 0.0120. The morphology of starch granule examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed some rough surface and a few changes in shape of OSA starches. The particle size of both OSA starches significantly (p< 0.05) increased (OSA sago starch = 29.05 µm, OSA gelose 80 = 20.37 µm) due to structural disorder that occurs after modification. OSA sago starch showed an increase in surface tension from 58.40 to 60.80 mN/m with increased in OSA sago starch concentration from 0.01 to 1.0% w/v. The surface tension for OSA gelose 80 was 54.87 mN/m. The modification has improved native sago starch and Gelose 80 becoming surface active molecules which will be useful to be used in emulsion.
Banana peels consist of valuable bioactive compounds and yet remain underutilised. This study investigated the effect of banana peel flour incorporation into biscuit formulation. The physicochemical properties and sensorial acceptability of biscuits produced at the different level of substitution (0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%) of Banana Peel Flour (BPF) were determined. The ash content (1.66% to 2.11%), moisture content (2.13% to 2.66%), fat content (24.2% to 30.7%) and total dietary fiber content (1.83 g/100g to 4.70 g/100g) in biscuits increased when the level of BPF substitution increased. The texture analysis demonstrated that BPF-containing biscuits had significantly higher value in hardness (1071.15 to 1300.61g) than control biscuit (992.69 g). İn contrast, the study showed a significant decrease in fracturability, lightness, width and height as the concentration of BPF increased. Sensory evaluation indicated that biscuit incorporated with BPF up to 20% level did not affect the appearance, taste, texture and overall acceptability ratings by the panelists. İn conclusion, BPF can be used as a functional ingredient and partially substituted wheat flour in biscuit production.
Roselle-pineapple leathers added with maltodextrin and hydrocolloids (locust bean gum and xanthan gum) were formulated to develop a new healthy-functional snack. The optimisation was carried out by the response surface methodology using a 5-level central composite rotatable design. The optimised fruit leather (pH= 3.2, TSS= 75°Brix) were dehydrated and subjected to physicochemical and antioxidant analyses as well as sensorial evaluation. The combination of 0.2% xanthan gum-0.2% locust bean gum-1.0% maltodextrin significantly maintained the fruit leather's colour and increased its extensibility. However, it significantly had lower (p < 0.05) total phenolic, total flavonoid, ferric reducing ability of plasma and 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging activity of the optimised fruit leather as compared to the control sample. Untrained panellists have assessed the sensory acceptability of the formulated snack food. They preferred the optimised roselle-pineapple leather added with maltodextrin and hydrocolloids as compared to the control roselle-pineapple leather.
Okara is the main by-product of soymilk industrieswith valuable components including soy fiber and soy protein. Okara has high potential market due to their high protein content. Increased in the utilization of plant protein is important to support the production of protein-rich foods that can replace animal protein which is known to be less healthy for human consumption. Hence this study aims to investigate the effects of the addition of okara flour on the proximate and amino acid compositions of beef sausage. A control beef sausage which contains 100% beef and 0% okara was compared with optimized beef sausage with added okara (89.59% beef and 10.41% okara) formulation. The optimized beef sausage with added okara was formulated according to that suggested by design expert software. The addition of okara flour in beef sausage had a significant effect on the proximate composition of the product. Arginine, glycine and serine were present in beef sausage with added okarabut absent in the control beef sausage. Threonine, tyrosine and aspartic acid were present in Control Sausage but absent in Okara Sausage.
