Abstract

Split Bengal gram dhal was roasted at 130-135 degree C for 30 min. The available lysine (g/100 g protein) was 6.39 in raw gram, and decreased to 5.70 on roasting and 5.60 on puffing. The in vitro protein digestibility was 79% in raw Bengal gram, and reduced to 57 and 67% resp. by roasting and puffing. Defatting improved the digestibility of proteins of raw Bengal gram from 79 to 94%, but increased that of roasted gram from 57 to 69% and of puffed gram from 67 to 77%.
