Abstract

The successful use of the Brabender Farinograph, Henry Simon Research extensometer, and Hilliff chapatti press for standardization and objective evaluation of chapaui doughs based on 93-95% extraction wheat flour (Olta) has been demonstrated. With a 50-g mixing bowl in lever position 1:3 of the farinograph. water absorption (%) and mixing lime for any wheat flour could be detennined by running a farinogram at the optimum dough consistency of 500 ± 20 BU. Optimum conditions for preparation of a chapatti dough were: 1 min of initial mixing, followed by a 5~mill rest period, and filial mixing until 1-2 min after the chapalti dough had attained the maximum consistency. The rolling characteristics of chapatti dough, as reflected by its stretching and spreading properties, could be objectively evaluated using the extensometer and the chapalli press, respectively. The farinograph'mixed dough could be rolled into chapatties immediately, lhereby avoiding the conventional rest period o[ about I hr. Based on the standard doughs thus obtained, the chapaui-making quality of six varieties of Indian aestivum wheats was evaluated
