Abstract

In this current study eight partially-baked breads were studied and compared in terms of a number of physicochemical characteristics: moisture distribution, density, RVA patterns, starch gelatinization, and retrogradation, amylose lipid complex formation and X-ray diffraction patterns. The samples were different in terms of total moisture content (from 32 to 38%) and moisture distribution in the cross section of the samples, starch retrogradation level (from 0.9 to 4.5 (J/g)) and RVA patterns. DSC experiments were carried out to determine the level of starch gelatinisation. The results showed that all starch granules in the eight partbaked breads were fully gelatinized under the conditions used and there was no intact starch granules left in the systems. Therefore, the second phase of baking will not be of great importance in terms of setting the structure and texture of the crumb of a product made from partbakaed bread. The role of the second phase of baking will be to a large extent the generation of flavor, crust, and coloration in the bread.
