The forest of Santiago del Estero (Argentina) have native fruits rich in natural
antioxidants (mistol, chañar). Processed these fruits as flour and industrialized as
gluten-free foods (LG), would diversify the food offer for people with celiac disease.
Objective: to sensorially characterize an LG sliced bread, by means of quantitative
descriptive analysis (QDA) and evaluate the level of liking.
We worked on a formulation (F1): a mixture of rice flour, mistol, chañar and beans,
and a commercial LG control bread (C).
The QDA of Breads F1 and C was performed, working with ten reliable judges,
who quantified the descriptors in portions of bread identified with random numbers
using a 10 cm scale anchored at the ends. Three repetitions were carried out. The
data were analyzed by ANOVA.
Affective tests were carried out on a pilot scale, with a panel of 30 consumers,
using a worksheet to evaluate the degree of satisfaction, with a hedonic scale of 9
points, where 1 represents "I dislike it very much" and 9 "I like it very much". F1
and C were presented for tasting, in balanced order, at 10:00am, in identical
containers.
The appearance attribute, the relationship between crust and crumb, was similar to
C. The color of the crumb showed a significant difference attributed to pigments
present in autochthonous fruit flours used for production.
Mouth texture: Crumbly, Gummyness, Hardness, Dryness. Flavor attribute: Sweet,
Salty, Acid, Bitter, Astringent, Sour, Spicy, Rancid, Yeast, Aftertaste.
The acceptability results showed that 75% of consumers scored F1 between 7 and
9 while C obtained 62.5% of the responses for scores less than 5.
The QDA constitutes a reference for quality control and shelf life.
Comparing the results, it is possible to infer that F1, due to its level of liking, could
be marketed as a food for celiac.
