Notes:
The effect of fortifying degermed cornmeal with defatted peanut flour (DPF) was evaluated by studying the nutritional quality, color proper: ties, flavor, storage stability and product applications. Protein efficiency ratio (PER) increased from 0.3-1.4 with 15% DPF. A PER of 2.0 resulted with the addition of 0.18%L-lysine HCl to the blend. Color changes are minimized by levels of 15% or less DPF. Taste panel results indicated no significant change in preference, acceptability and similarity to cornmeal when as much as 20% peanut flour was contained in the blend. Storage stability was satisfactory as indicated by changes in flavor, peroxides, free fatty acids and available and added lysine after storage for 2, 6 and 12 months at 49, 37 and 25°C, respectively. Leavened and unleavened breads were acceptable when prepared with blends containing up to 20% DPF.
