Abstract
HLEAP-ZAPATA, José Igor et al. Effect of the partial replacement of wheat flour with turmeric flour (Curcuma longa) on the physicochemical and sensory properties of a common chorizo. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2020, vol.87, n.214, pp.46-52. Epub Oct 30, 2020. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v87n214.83722.
The effect of partial replacement of wheat flour with turmeric flour (Curcuma longa) on the physicochemical and sensory properties of chorizo made with pork was evaluated. Three levels of turmeric flour substitution were proposed 0.8%, 1.4% and 2.1%, corresponding to a substitution of a 19.04%, 33.33% and 50,00%, respectively, along with a control chorizo without the addition of said flour. The pH, water holding capacity, color, texture and sensory evaluation were measured. The pH tended towards acidity in the treatment with the greatest inclusion of uremic flour. The sensory evaluation was carried out with to untrained panelists who determined the chorizo with the highest acceptability. For the sensory parameters, there were no significant differences, except for color. Therefore, turmeric flour can be used as a partial substitute for wheat flour in the production of common chorizo without affecting physicochemical and sensory properties.
