Abstract
Four processing treatments [soaking (12 & 18h), germination (24 & 48h), boiling, steaming, and roasting (20 & 40min)] were evaluated for their effect on chemical composition, in vitro protein digestibility, antinutrients and functional properties of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Boiling reduced tannins (97%) and trypsin inhibitory activity (60%), and increased the amount of gelatinized starch (25%) most effectively, but adversely decreased in vitro protein digestibility. Processing treatments affected fatty acids (FAs) levels of lipids significantly, with germination retaining the highest level of polyunsaturated fat (57%) and the lowest monounsaturated fat (28%). Bulk density, oil and water absorption and swelling capacities of flours improved upon most treatments, whereas, emulsifying, foaming and gelling capacities were altered.....
