    Study Notes

    Factors Affecting Viscoelastic Properties of Wheat Dough

    • Hydrogen bonding among amide and hydroxyl groups, hydrophobic interactions, and sulfhydryl-disulfide interchange reactions contribute to the development of unique viscoelastic properties.
    • The culmination of these interactions into good dough-making properties depends on the structural properties of each protein and their associations in the overall gluten structure.

    Protein Structure in Gluten

    • Polypeptides of gluten, especially glutenins, are rich in proline, resulting in very little folded structure.
    • Whatever folded structure initially exists in gliadins and glutenins is lost during mixing and kneading, and no additional unfolding occurs during baking.

    Effects of Supplementation on Dough Properties

    • Supplementation of wheat flour with albumin- and globulin-type proteins (e.g., whey proteins and soy proteins) adversely affects viscoelastic properties and baking quality of the dough.
    • These proteins decrease bread volume by interfering with formation of the gluten network.

    Counteracting Adverse Effects with Surfactants

    • Addition of phospholipids or other surfactants to dough counters the adverse effects of foreign proteins on loaf volume.
    • The surfactant/protein film compensates for the impaired gluten film, resulting in acceptable loaf volume.

    Textural and Sensory Qualities of Bread

    • Although surfactants can restore loaf volume, the textural and sensory qualities of the bread are less desirable than normal.

    Isolated Gluten as a Protein Ingredient

    • Isolated gluten is used as a protein ingredient in non-bakery products due to its cohesion-adhesion properties.
    • It is an effective binder in comminuted meat and surimi-type products.
