What is it about?

We investigated the rheological properties of several varieties of cassava after processing them into flour. We determined the physico-chemical properties of the flours and used the appropriate ones to develop noodles

Why is it important?

Use of enriched cassava flours for ready to use foods will enhance the nutrient value of this staple food ffor use in convenience food preparations.

Perspectives

Food and nutrition security can be greatly enhanced if cassava which is low in protein is complemented with legumes and used to formulate noodles. The varities suitable for noodle manufacture have to be identified before legume complementation
