    Yuksel, Ferhat; Karaman, Safa; Gurbuz, Melek; Hayta, Mehmet; Yalcin, Hasan; Dogan, Mahmut; Kayacier, Ahmed

    In this study, utilization of stale bread powder was evaluated to produce low fat snack food formulation and for this purpose, corn chips were manufactured using stale bread at different concentrations. Response surface modeling technique was used to study the simultaneous effects of stale bread level (0–50%), frying time (40–60 s) and frying temperature (170–190 °C) on some physicochemical, textural and sensory properties of corn chips enriched with stale bread powder. Also, optimization of processing variables was performed for desired products. Results indicated that the addition of stale bread into the formulation decreased the oil content of the final product up to addition of 25% stale bread level. The hardness and yellowness of samples decreased with the increasing of stale bread level; while, the dry matter and ash contents as well as firmness value and sensory scores of samples increased with the increasing stale bread level. Generally, corn chips produced with the addition of stale bread were more preferred by the panel compared to control samples.

    Utilization of stale bread in fried wheat chips: Response surface methodology study for the characterization of textural, morphologic, sensory, some physicochemical and chemical properties of wheat chips

    Yuksel, Ferhat; Kayacier, Ahmed

    Wheat chips enriched with stale bread were produced and response surface methodology was used for the studying the simultaneous effects of stale bread level (0-50 g/100g), frying temperature (170-190 °C) and frying time (40-60 s) on some physicochemical, chemical, textural, morphological and sensorial properties of chips. Additionally, product optimization was performed by using ridge analysis to detect the optimum levels of process variables. The dry matter, ash, Hunter Lab a and b values of samples increased with the increasing stale bread level. Higher frying temperature caused a decrease in the hardness and water activity values. Also, addition of stale bread in the formulation of chips decreased the oil uptake of samples significantly (p < 0.01). Sensory values of wheat chips increased with the increasing stale bread level. In general, panelists preferred wheat chips enriched with stale bread compared to control sample. The addition of stale bread made the structure of chips firm and electron microscopy analysis revealed that pores and fractures of chips decreased for the samples containing stale bread, which resulted in lower oil uptake during frying.

    Dynamic mechanical spectra of selected turkish honeys: Construction of predictive models for complex viscosity using two different nonlinear modeling techniques

    Kayacier, Ahmed; Yüksel, Ferhat; Karaman, Safa

    Dynamic oscillatory shear rheological characteristics of honey samples from different floral sources were evaluated using frequency sweep test and stress sweep test at three different temperatures (10, 15, and 20°C). All honey samples showed liquid-like behavior because the loss modulus was significantly greater than the elastic modulus. Pine honey showed the highest complex viscosity (86.33 Pa s at 10°C), while the lowest complex viscosity was observed in citrus honey (22.15 Pa s) at the same temperature. Temperature dependency of complex viscosity of honey samples was modeled by Arrhenius model and activation energy values of honeys ranged from 83.13 to 97.46 kJ/mol. An efficient predictive model for complex viscosity values of honeys was constructed using adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system that showed satisfactory prediction performance with high coefficient of determination (0.995) and low root mean square error (0.04) in the validation period compared to artificial neural networks.

    Simplex lattice mixture design approach on physicochemical and sensory properties of wheat chips enriched with different legume flours: An optimization study based on sensory properties

    Kayacier, Ahmed; Yüksel, Ferhat; Karaman, Safa

    In this study, physicochemical and sensory characteristics of wheat chips enriched with different legume flours were investigated. Wheat chips formulations were composed with the mixture of wheat flour and the mixture of three different legume flours (wheat-legume ratio 80:20). Mixture design approach was used to determine the effect of interactions between pea, chickpea and soy flour on the physicochemical and sensory properties of chips produced with wheat-legume flour mixture. In addition, product optimization was carried out by using ridge analysis to determine the optimum legume flour mixture proportions based on sensory properties of chips samples. Chickpea flour was found to be highest desired component depending on the general acceptability scores of chips. Protein content of chips increased significantly with the addition of soy flour. Optimum limit values of chickpea, pea and soy flour in the legume flour mixture used for the enrichment of the wheat chips were found to be 50-100 g/100 g, 0-60 g/100 g and 0-45 g/100 g legume flour, respectively, with respect to sensory properties. Additionally, ridge analysis results showed that the wheat chips should include only chickpea flour in the legume flour fraction to obtain maximum overall preference score (6.08).

    Response Surface Methodology Study for Optimization of Effects of Fiber Level, Frying Temperature, and Frying Time on Some Physicochemical, Textural, and Sensory Properties of Wheat Chips Enriched with Apple Fiber

    Kayacier, Ahmed; Yüksel, Ferhat; Karaman, Safa

    In this study, wheat chips enriched with apple fiber were produced, and response surface methodology was used for the determination of the simultaneous effects of processing variables selected as fiber level (0-15 %), frying temperature (160-180 °C), and frying time (40-60 s) on some physicochemical, textural, and sensorial properties of chips. Ridge analysis was conducted to determine the optimum levels of processing variables. Predictive regression equations with high coefficient of determination (R 2 ≥ 0.728) were constructed. Addition of apple fiber increased the dry matter; ash content; L, a, and b values of samples, while increase of frying temperature caused decrease of the hardness values. Overall acceptability of chips enriched with apple fiber decreased with the increase of frying temperature, but wheat chips enriched with apple fiber and fried at low temperatures received highest sensory score. Ridge analysis showed that maximum taste score would be attained at fiber level = 15 %, frying temperature = 170 °C and frying time = 40 s.

    Physicochemical, bioactive, and sensory properties of persimmon-based ice cream: Technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution to determine optimum concentration

    Karaman, Safa; Toker, Ömer Said; Yüksel, Ferhat; Çam, Mustafa; Kayacier, Ahmed; Dogan, Mahmut

    In the present study, persimmon puree was incorporated into the ice cream mix at different concentrations (8, 16, 24, 32, and 40%) and some physicochemical (dry matter, ash, protein, pH, sugar, fat, mineral, color, and viscosity), textural (hardness, stickiness, and work of penetration), bioactive (antiradical activity and total phenolic content), and sensory properties of samples were investigated. The technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution approach was used for the determination of optimum persimmon puree concentration based on the sensory and bioactive characteristics of final products. Increase in persimmon puree resulted in a decrease in the dry matter, ash, fat, protein contents, and viscosity of ice cream mix. Glucose, fructose, sucrose, and lactose were determined to be major sugars in the ice cream samples including persimmon and increase in persimmon puree concentration increased the fructose and glucose content. Better melting properties and textural characteristics were observed for the samples with the addition of persimmon. Magnesium, K, and Ca were determined to be major minerals in the samples and only K concentration increased with the increase in persimmon content. Bioactive properties of ice cream samples improved and, in general, acetone-water extracts showed higher bioactivity compared with ones obtained using methanol-water extracts. The technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution approach showed that the most preferred sample was the ice cream containing 24% persimmon puree.
