Development of Fibre Enriched Pasta from Brow
I recently came across some interesting information about the growing popularity of millets among millennials. Brown top millets, in particular, have gained attention for their gluten-free, nutrient-dense properties and are cultivated in dry regions of India and other parts of the world. Similarly, Rajma, a crop that originated in the Indian subcontinent, is grown for food production and as a forage and cover crop. It is an excellent source of protein and is used in various food products for its therapeutic benefits. To combat nutrient- deficient diets and malnutrition, Fibre Enriched Brown Top Millet Pasta (FBTP) was developed by incorporating Brown top Millet (40%, 60%, and 80%), rajmah pulses flour (40%, 60% and 100%) grape skin powder (10% and 20%). The FBTP had a higher amount of antioxidant capacity and improved functional and nutraceutical properties. Overall, this presents a great opportunity for utilizing these crops in food products and reaping their many benefimethod's
