Abstract:In order to explore the effect of vacuum extrusion on the noodles, the nutritional components, quality analysis and functional evaluation of the vacuum extruded coarse cereal noodles, common extruded coarse cereal noodles and wheat flour noodles were carried out. The results showed that the effect of vacuum extrusion on the nutritional composition and functional characteristics of noodles was not significant (P>0.05); Compared with normal-pressure extruded multi-grain noodles, the vacuum-extruded ones had good texture characteristics with a smooth surface, showing teeth non-sticky. The content of total phenols, total flavonoids, rutin and quercetin in the multigrain noodles was significantly higher than that of wheat flour noodles (P<0.05), and the antioxidant properties were superior. The starch digestibility of coarse cereal noodles was lower than that of the noodles with wheat flour, which was more suitable for people with abnormal sugar metabolism.
