IMPROVER PREMIX FOR CHAPATIS COMPRISING ASCORBIC ACID , SODIUM STEAROYL
LACTYLATE AND GUAR GUM
Field of the present invention
A process for preparing an improved quality chapatis having novel improver premix providing longer shelf-life to the chapatis, said process comprising steps of mixing an improver mix of concentration ranging between comprising of ascorbic acid, sodium stearoyl lactylate and guar gum with whole wheat flour, adding sufficient quantity of water to the mixture of step (a) and mixing the same to obtain chapati dough, ageing the chapati dough for a time period in the range of 20 to 30 minutes, and sheeting and baking the aged chapati dough to obtain the chapatis; also, an improver premix comprising ascorbic acid, sodium stearoyl lactylate, and guar gum useful for the preparation of chapati, and further, a chapati comprising of whole-wheat flour, improver premix, water, total dry matter, moisture in chapati. Background and prior art references The chapati is a flat unleavened baked product, which forms the staple food of the majority of the population in the Indian subcontinent and parts of the Middle East. The consumption of this traditional product is increasing and has become popular even in areas where traditionally rice has been the staple diet. Chapatis are normally made and served hot at breakfast, lunch or dinner, and are eaten along with other adjuncts in households, restaurants and industrial canteens. There are several culinary variations of the chapati - the important ones being the parotha, stuffed parotha, tandoori roti, phulka and puri. The other culinary variations come under the category of unfermented flat breads; they are dense in texture, comprising mostly crust with little or no crumb. The texture should be soft, smooth and pliable, and these characteristics should be retained for at least 2-3 hrs of storage. The very short keeping quality of chapatis poses serious problems where they have to be served to a large number of consumers at one time, as in industrial canteens or in restaurants. The chapati is an intermediate moisture product, containing 25-35% moisture, stales like bread or cake, becoming less acceptable on storage. Storage tends to make chapati hard and brittle. In addition to these changes, mold growth also occurs after 3-4 days of storage.
The information on the use of additives in chapati and related products is scanty. Chapatis with yeast leavening, glycerol monostearate, and alpha amylase supplements notably improved the texture and flavour of whole meal chapaties as compared with traditional unleavened chapaties, which are tough and highly susceptible to staling (Swaranjeet, K., Maninder, K., and Bains, G.S. 1982. Chapaties with leavening and supplements; changes in texture, residual sugars, and phytic phosphorous. Cereal Chemistry, 59, 367-372). Sucrose-ester emulsifiers did not improve dough handling characteristics or tenderness of the finished product (Ebeler, S.E., and Walker, C.E. 1983. Wheat and composite flour chapaties; Effect of soy flour and sucrose-ester emulsifiers. Cereal Chemistry, 60, 270- 275). Addition of salt (1.25%), glycerol monostearate (0.5%), sorbic acid (0.2%) and fat (4%) minimized development of brittleness to some extent (Venkateswara Rao, G., Leelavathi, K., Haridas Rao, P. and Shurpalekar, S.R. 1986. Changes in the quality characteristics of chapati during storage. Cereal Chemistry. 63, 131-135). Incorporation of emulsifiers such as glycerol monostearate, sucrose esters and sodium stearoyl lactylate and alpha amylase improved the texture of chapati as well as keeping quality (Haridas Rao, P. 1993. Chapati and related products. In: Encyclopedia on Food Science Technology and Nutrition, Academic press. 795-801). Texture of chapatis was improved by yeast fermentation with or without lactic acid. Addition of lactic acid softened chapatis more than addition of yeast (Syed, H.M., Ratlu, S.D., and Sawate, A.R. 1991. Studies on improving chapati quality. Indian Miller. 22, 26-31). Addition of 0.10-0.20% ascorbic acid improved the texture and puffing of chapatis made from atta (Abrol, Y.P., Mehd, V., Uprety, D.C., Tikoo, S., and Ram. A. 1972. Studies on chapati quality III. Preservation of discoloration of chaptis. Bulletin of Grain teclinology. 10, 100-106). Sorbic acid is normally used as an antifungal agent for preserving chapati. The maximum level that could be incorporated with out affecting the taste is 0.1%. The mold growth is delayed by 2-3 days at this level. However, use of higher level of sorbic acid (0.3%) along with 1.5% salt, and packaging in polythene (200 gauge), or in an aluminium foil / polyethylene laminate, can delay mold growth for as long as 180 days. The level of sorbic acid could be reduced further either by including 0.4% citric acid, 3% sugar and 2.5% salt in recipe, or by heating the packed chapatis made for defence personnel are preserved by in-pack heat sterilization after being packed in paper / foil / poly laminate. Packed chapattis / parothas exposing to (gamma) radiation of 1 M radiation also delay mould growth for 180 days. (Arya SS, Vidyasagar K and Parihar DB, 1977, preservation of chapati. Lebensmittel-wissenschaft and Technology, 10:208).
Reference may be made to Kameswara Rao G, malathi M.A, Mohan, M. S, 1970. Preservation and packaging of Indian Foods III parottas, Journal of Food Science and Technology 6, 279 where in parothas were preserved using sorbic acid and salt, and packing in cellophane pouch and repacking in paper / foil / polyethylene pouches. The drawback is that the parothas contained as high as 1.25% salt and 0.3% sorbic acid. Reference may be made to Bhatia B. S. and Nath H, 1971. Some technological aspects of Defence Food Research in India during the sixties. Indian food packer 25; 59 where in preservation of chapatis and parothas were achieved using sorbic acid and salt or by irradiation or by heat processing in high vacuum covers. The draw back is that the chapatis contained high levels of salt and sorbic acid.
Reference may be made to Arya S.S, Vidyasagar K, Parihar, D.B, 1977. Preservation of chapatis. Lebensmittel-Wissenschaft und-technology 10, 208, where in chapatis were preserved using citric acid, sorbic acid, salt and sugar. The effective concentration of sorbic acid can be reduced to 0.15% by in pack heating of chapatis for 2 hrs at 90-95°C. Incorporation of fat, dried milk and oleoresins of cumin seeds and cardamom have been tried to improve the texture and flavour of preserved chapatis. The draw back is that the chapatis contained high amount of salt, citric acid and sorbic acid and the taste of chapati is very much affected.

Patent No.WOOl 82722 (2001) where in cereal grains and flour and particular to a synergistic mix of flour and flour obtained from high temperature treated cereal grains suitable for use in flat breads such as chapati making is described. The draw back is that heated flour other than wheat grain are used.
