 ABSTRACT

The traditional milling processing practices used in rice and pulses milling, yields significant amounts in the form of brokens from rice and dal mill industries. That brokens do not find appropriate market and are listed as losses of the milling industries, generally disposed off cheaply, whereas they have equally rich in the nutrition as comparable to whole grain. In developing countries protein malnutrition is a big issue for most of the population. The objective of this study was to develop a novel snack made with rice and pigeon pea dal brokens, yields from milling industries commonly considered as wastage, by using extrusion cooking technology.  The effect of process parameters i.e. moisture content of feed and feed blend ration, as well as the operational parameters  i.e. barrel temperature, die head temperature and screw speed of extruder on physio-chemical properties of  extrudates were studied. A central composite rotatable design (CCRD) of response surface methodology was used to develop prediction model. Second order quadratic regression model was fitted in the variation. The significance was established at p≤ 0.05. The results suggested that the extrusion variables (i.e. process and operational parameters) were found significance influence on the extrudate physio-chemical properties as well as both independently and interactively. The feed blend ratio and extruder barrel temperature were observed to be the most significant factors that affected the extrudate properties. The best extrusion conditions was obtained at screw speed of 135 rpm, barrel temperature of 130 0C and die head temperature 190 0C based on moisture content, expansion ratio, bulk density, and protein content of the extruded products. This study demonstrated that extruded products could be prepared from blends of rice broken flour and pigeon pea dal broken flour under different ranges of extrusion conditions.
