Introduction:
Materials and Methods
Materials
Soybean seeds (Glycine Max., L., commercial variety) were obtained from Legumes Research Dep., Field Crops Research Institute, Agriculture Research Center, Giza, Egypt.
Wheat floure, margarinen, salt, yeast, sugar, nonfat dry milk from local market
Plate count agar, McConky agar, Malt agar and Trypton soy agar media were obtained from Difco Co (USA).
Methods
The raw materials {soy curd (Tofu), whey proteins, palm oil, skim milk powder, stabilizers {carboxymethylcellolose - Guar gum}, emulsifying salts and water were added consecutively in laboratory processing Kettle (Thermomix TM 31 made in Australia Pty Ltd 2010) as mentioned byAwadet al., (2014).
Vegetable and fruits was added to the formula. The mixture was cooked for 10 min at 85-90°C using indirect steam at pressure 2-2.5 kg/cm2. The mixture was hot filled into wide mouth glass jars and capped directly after filling. The formulations of the six spreadable tofu samples are shown in table 1.
Dough was prepared according to the method described by Sternhagen and Hoseney (1994). The ingredients consisted of 1Kg Wheat flour, 100g margarine, 15g salt, 15g yeast, 100g sugar, 40g nonfat dry milk and water to make dough after mixing, then the dough rested for 15 min. before incorporating 0.500 Kg of layering fat by envelop method. The paste was rested for 15 min. more and gauged to thickness by using sheeter. After that the paste was cut into triangular pieces each piece 50g. The pastries were placed into a proofing cabinet and proofed at 85% humidity and 38 C to 60 min
Spreadable tofu enhanced with difference additives (30g) were added to 100 g croissant dough as filling materials, and then the pastries were baked at 205 for 10-15 min. Then, the croissant sample were wrapped with stretch film and stored at room temperature up to 4 days. The seven samples are shown in table 2.
Moisture, total proteins, fat and ash contents were determined as described in AOAC (2012). Carbohydrate content was calculated by subtraction of the sum of moisture, protein, fat and ash contents AOAC (2005)
The sensory properties of samples were determined by panel of judges who were familiar with the product using the hedonic scale where 1-10 represents dislike extremely to like extremely (Abou- Dobara, et al., 2016). Sensorycharacteristics (taste, odor, texture, crust color, crust appearance, lamination and volume) of croissant pastries were determined according to the methods described by Bennion and Bamford (1983).
Results And Discussion
Chemical composition:
The chemical composition of croissant samples with spreadable tofu products is illustrated in Figures 1- 5. Data showed slight differences among the treatments within the ranges of moisture contents (19.60-19.90).
Protein contents ranged between 8.48 and 10.96%. Fat contents varied from 30.61 to 32.67% and ash fluctuated between 1.64 and 2.06%. Protein, fat and ash contents in all samples with spreadable tofu were higher than control.
Treatment Ct6 (croissant filled with spreadable tofu and peach pulp) showed the highest moisture and ash, while Treatment Ct2 (croissant with spreadable tofu and Chopped green olive) had the highest protein and fat contents. In contrast, control croissant showed highest carbohydrates compared other samples.
These results were in harmony with Massoud et al. (2016) and Zeiny, et al.(2015) who noted that moisture content of croissant ranged from (17.80 - 22.94%), and protein, fat contents and carbohydrates represented 10.27%, 32.11 % and 43.97%. Total carbohydrates were in the same line with Nazim et al. (2013).
As food products containing 1-25% fat was defined as low fat, while 25–45% as medium fat (Codex, 2016). The croissant pastry with spreadable tofu blends could be categorized as medium-fat products.
Water activity:
Data shown in Table (3) illustrated that water activity of croissant pastry samples at zero time ranged from 0.879 to 0.912 and after storage for 3 days ranged 0.837 to 0.880. These results are in the same line with those of Linda and Stan (2008) who noted that water activity in yeasted pastries, e.g. Danish, croissant had 0.9 aw.
Microbiological properties:
Obtained data in Table (4) showed that neither yeasts & molds nor bacteria were detected in all the fresh samples at zero time. .However, after 3 days total plate counts of Croissant pastry samples (Ct, Ct1, Ct2, Ct3, Ct4, Ct5 and Ct6) were 3.34, 3.32, 3.28, 3.39, 3.1, 3.55and 3.47 log cfu/g, respectively, and yeasts & molds reached 2.7, 2.34, 3.35, 3.6, 3.65, 3.53 and 3.68 log cfu/g.
These findings confirmed those of Hozova et al. (2002) who found that the yeast count in croissant is not included in the standard, and maximum limit for the mold count in this type of product is 5 × 102/g).
Sensory evaluation:
Data in Figures 6 - 13 showed that the sensory test of croissant pastry samples proved the superiority of green olive sample compared to pepper sample. Meanwhile, peach sample showed higher acceptability score than guava, however, Control spreadable tofu was less acceptable than all the other samples. Taste and odor scores of Ct6 demonstrated the highest values compared to other samples. However, for the other sensory attributes; i. e. texture, shape, crustappearance, layer formation and crumb color showed slight differences among the different samples.
These results confirmed the similar trend found by EL-Boraey et al. (2015) who explained that the beany taste and flavor undoubtedly were the principal reasons for the declining of soymilk scores.
As Agrahar, (2014) mentioned that taste and flavor are the two very important constituents to like or dislike a product. The presence of beany flavor and off smell of soy products used to be one of the biggest hindrances in its promotion as a healthy food. Food additives are known to reduce the undesirable flavors such as beany to a minimum and maximize total acceptability for tofu, and good color characteristics was found highly acceptable by panelists.
In this respect, Shalaby and Yasin (2013) pointed out that the bread and other bakery product like croissant have an important role in human nutrition. Therefore, there have been many investigations to enhance the nutritive value of these products to produce tasteful croissant-type products filled with various kinds of cream or cheese that are favored especially by children population.
