This study explores the impact of milling methods on the quality and noodle-making performance by comparing jet-milled (WF-JM) and ultra-centrifugally milled (WF-UM) purple-colored whole wheat flours. WF-JM exhibits smaller starch granules and a fragmented protein matrix attributed to the increased milling pressure. Physicochemical analyses reveal lower moisture and higher damaged starch in WF-JM. Rheological analyses show lower viscosity in the WF-JM blends. The mixograph results reveal weaker dough-mixing stability and strength for WF-JM. Cooked noodles from WF-JM are uneven, in contrast to uniform WF-UM strands. Blending WF-UM enhances noodle quality. Overall, the noodle-making performance for WF-JM was inferior compared to WF-UM, confirming the significantly negative impact of damaged starch and fragmented protein matrix in whole wheat flour than the positive effect of particle size. This study highlights the complex interplay between milling methods, particle size, and physicochemical attributes, providing insights for optimizing whole wheat flour processing and product quality.

This study examined the impact of xylanases, focusing on the hydrolysis of water-extractable (WE-AX) and water-unextractable arabinoxylans (WU-AX) and on the quality and noodle-making performance of flours with varying gluten strengths. Flours categorized as strong (S), medium (M), and weak (W) were treated with two xylanases (WE and WU) at concentrations ranging from 0.01% to 0.

This study examined the effects of adding different types of arabinoxylans (AXs) to wheat flour with varying gluten strengths on flour quality and noodle-making performance, with the aim of utilizing AXs as health-enhanced ingredients. Three flours (Goso, Hojoong, and Joongmo) with low, medium, and high gluten strengths were used, along with two water-extractable AXs (E1 and E2) and one water-unextractable AX (U) with diverse molecular weights and viscosities. The addition of 2% AXs increased the water and sucrose solvent retention capacity values and decreased the gluten performance index values for all flours, with a notable effect on Goso flour by U.

Wheat flour was partially replaced by debittered acorn flour (DAF) with 0%, 10%, 15%, 20% as well as 25%. Rheological properties of wheat/acorn dough and quality and in vitro digestibility of its noodles were determined. Results showed that DAF addition significantly improved pasting viscosity and dough stability time while excessive addition weakened the protein network and decreased maximum fermentation height.

Potential application of enzymes to improve quality of dry noodles by reducing water absorption of inferior-quality flour.

This study has investigated the characteristics of dry noodles made with Korean domestic wheat flours using enzyme treatment for reducing water absorption to improve noodle-making performance. The water solvent retention capacity (SRC) values of flour treated with α-amylase and xylanase significantly decreased with increasing enzyme concentrations up to 0.025% (flour weight basis), which confirmed the enzyme effect on reducing the water absorption capacity of damaged starches and arabinoxylans.
