| Abstract: | Three formulas of cookies prepared from 50:45:5 (I), 50:40:10 (II) and 50:35:15% (III) wheat flour, broken rice flour, and defatted soy flour, respectively, baked in a microwave oven (2450 MHz) for 240 sec, were rated as the best of six formulas for flavor and texture by a trained panel. Cookies of formulas I and II were preferred over formula III by a consumer-type panel. Cookies of all three formulas showed no significant differences in nitrogen balance, apparent biological protein value and apparent net protein utilization. Apparent protein digestibility and protein efficiency ratio were significantly higher in formulas II and III than in formula I. |
