Overview

Experimental analysis demonstrates enhanced micronutrient content and altered cooking yield in composite noodles, highlighting their potential as nutritious convenience foods.

Key Points

  • Significantly higher concentrations of dietary fiber and essential minerals occur in composite noodles, improving overall nutritional quality compared to refined wheat controls.
  • Cooking yield rose to 219.88 percent versus 184.73 percent in controls, while carotenoids and ash content also showed marked increases across analytical evaluations.
  • Response surface methodology optimization established flour blending ratios, and proximate analysis confirmed substantial improvements in vital mineral and vitamin profiles.
