Functional role of citrus fiber as an emulsifier in dough rheology, gluten structure formation and bread quality characteristics.

Background: Citrus fiber (CF) is a promising clean label emulsifier to replace commonly used emulsifiers such as propylene glycol alginate (PGA) in breadmaking. However, most previous studies have focused primarily on the physical and sensory attributes of CF-enriched bread while the mechanisms underlying these effects remain poorly understood.

Results: The addition of CF significantly increased β sheet structure of gluten proteins and improved both the storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G″) of dough, with a more pronounced effect on G' compared to PGA.
