Evaluation of pasting and dough rheological properties of composite flours made from flour varied in gluten strength.

ABSTRACT: Flours from various wheat varieties varied in gluten strength were blended in varying proportions and evaluated for pasting and dough rheological properties. The different blends of strong: very weak/weak/medium flour (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100) (w/w) were prepared. Two strong and three weak wheat varieties were selected for this study on the basis of Farinograph dough stability (DS). Strong wheat (HUW468 and HP1761), medium weak (HUW234), weak (HD2894) and very weak (WH1021) wheat variety had DS of 11.4-13.5 min, 9.9 min, 6.2 min, and 2.8 min, respectively. Protein content of the flour decreased with increase in proportion of weak wheat flours in the blends. The lowest values of protein content, paste viscosities and mixographic parameters were observed for blend of strong and
