Comparative Evaluation Of Proximate Composition, Starch And Mineral Profiles Of Parboiled And Roasted African Breadfruit (Treculia Africana) Seed Flours
ABSTRACT
African breadfruit seed was subjected
to roasting and parboiling to study the effect of roasting and parboiling on
the mineral and starch profiles. Proximate composition showed a significant
dilfrrcnce (1'<0.05) in the raw and roasted breadfruit flour samples. There
were signilicanl increase in the crude protein content from 19.34% (raw) to
23.62% (roasted). Crude libre content from 1.98% (raw) to 8.53% (roasted), ash
content from 1.78'½, (raw) lo 3.78% (roasted) and dry mailer content from
88.75% (raw) to 91.27% (roasted). Moisture content from 63.27% (raw) to 54%
(roasted). The study showed lhal roasting i11cn:as1.· 1'11.: mineral content than
in the raw sample from calcium 126.67% (raw) to 152.63 (roasted) and roasting,
decreases the starch profile of African breadfruit sect! than in the raw
sample.
