“…Substitution of chickpea flour with wheat flour leads to an increased Maillard reaction taking place between free amino acid group of protein mainly lysine and reducing sugars. It was known that lysine content of chickpea flour was greater than wheat flour [37]. This caused a reduction of L* value and an increment of a* value of the breads containing chickpea flour sourdough.…”
