Propriedades físicas de batatas fritas feitas com farinhas de quinoa e de casca de opuntia
Resumo
Grande parte da população mundial tem o hábito de consumir regularmente fast-food. A maioria dos menus de fast-food tem as batatas fritas como acompanhamento essencial. O seu consumo não representa um maior aporte nutricional, além disso o processo de fritura incorpora uma quantidade considerável de óleo às batatas fritas, aumentando os riscos de doenças como a obesidade. O objetivo deste trabalho de pesquisa foi avaliar as propriedades físicas e texturais de um substituto da batata frita, elaborado por tecnologia de extrusão com a incorporação de farinha de um cereal nutritivo como a quinoa e farinha da casca de Opuntia em sua formulação. Os resultados indicam que é possível obter zaragatoas de um substituto da batata que podem ser fritas por imersão em óleo a 180 °C, tal como um produto comercial pré-frito. A firmeza dos substitutos da batata frita é 30 % maior do que a do produto comercial, enquanto a sua taxa de absorção de óleo é três vezes menor do que esta (6.25 %). Provavelmente a fibra presente na farinha de casca de Opuntia e a proteína presente na farinha de quinoa podem causar este fenómeno. Conclui-se que, é possível fabricar produtos semelhantes à batata frita tradicional e comercial, de modo que, sem alterar os hábitos de consumo da população, possa permitir-lhes uma alimentação mais saudável.
