Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the technological and nutritional viability of the use of jabuticaba peel, an agroindustrial residue, in the development of gluten-free noodles. We evaluated the physical, chemical and technological characteristics of gluten-free noodles substituting 15% and 30% of rice flour and pre-gelatinized rice flour by jabuticaba peel flour. The product with highest proportion of the residue-derived flour increased considerably its nutritional value, and its energy value practically unchanged when compared with noodles prepared only with rice flour. Thus, the pasta added of jabuticaba peel flour is a more beneficial food not only for the gluten intolerant individuals, but for anyone concerned about a healthy diet.
