Erdoğdu, Esma Gülbahar; Akar, Bülent; Baltacı, Cemalettin
Pomegranate sour is a traditional functional food that is widely consumed in Türkiye. The aim of this study is to determine the most convenient evaporation method to keep the amount of HMF, a carcinogenic substance formed as a result of high temperatures in the production of pomegranate sour, at low levels. The pomegranate sours were produced using five different evaporation methods (atmospheric pressure (AP), freeze-drying (FD), open air (OA), vacuum assisted (VA) and fan assisted (FA)) and the amount of HMF formed during the process was determined. Kinetic calculations showed that VA and FA methods followed first-order reaction kinetics at 60, 70 and 80 °C, while OA, FD and AP methods followed zero-order reaction kinetics at 80, 90 and 100 °C. The mean Q10 value was 1.0006, while the activation energy (Ea) ranged from 72.56 to 126.38 kJ/mol. It was found that the amount of HMF formed varied according to the method, temperature and production time and that the reaction rates increased with increasing temperature, especially for the OA method. In addition, pH, titratable acidity, invert and total sugar content, color, Brix and browning index were analyzed and a kinetic model including all these factors was developed.

Kaya, Şemsettin; Yuksel, Ferhat
The aim of this study was to develop alternative and healthy deep-fried chips by fortifying wheat chips with purple wheat flour (PWF). The effect of process variables (PWF content: 0-100%, frying temp. and time: 170-190 °C and 40-60 s) on the physicochemical, textural, instrumental color, sensorial properties, and optimization of the chips were investigated using response surface methodology. The levels of PWF in the chips receipt dramatically reduced oil uptake (by 23%), whereas the protein content of chips increased of the end products. The instrumental hardness of the enriched chips increased while sensory firmness decreased with increasing PWF. Generally, the chips enriched with PWF received the highest overall acceptability score by the panelists. Higher desirability (optimization results) and the process variables were determined as a 0.73 and 92.72 g/100g PWF, 170 °C, 40 s, respectively. These findings show that PWF can be easily incorporated into products that involve deep-fried chips.
