A todos, o meu MUITO OBRIGADA! “Not all those who wonder are lost” J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring viii ABSTRACT Bread is consumed in large quantities on a daily base and have an important role in human nutrition. The addition of functional ingredients to bakery products has risen in popularity due to the ability to reduce risk of chronic diseases beyond basic nutritional function. Food industrial by-products (BP) are rich sources of functional ingredients, such as fibre, minerals, and phytochemicals that are promising for improvement of nutritional quality of bread and may potentially enhance their health promoting properties. However, the incorporation BP functional ingredients also influence technological and sensorial properties. The work developed in this PhD thesis aimed to obtain new fibre rich ingredients from agroindustry BP and to produce new types of fortified bread with enhanced nutritional/health benefits, while assuring good sensory characteristics. In order to achieve these goals, preliminary studies were carried out using brewer’s spent yeast. Proteins/proteolytic enzymes from inner brewer’s yeast had a negative impact on bread physical properties, whereas β-glucan rich extract can improve bread technological and health promoting properties. As result, β-glucans (fibre) rich extract was selected as a potential functional ingredient. Moreover, three agroindustry BP of plant origin were also used to obtain fibre rich extracts: elderberry skin, pulp and seeds (for elderberry extract, EE); orange peel (for orange extract, OE); pomegranate peel and interior membranes (for pomegranate extract, PE). Different extraction procedures were optimized for each BP in order to obtain fibre rich extracts that were characterized concerning their fibre composition. Functional breads eligible for nutrition claims “source of fibre” and “high in fibre” were prepared through wheat flour replacement with YE (4%), EE (4 and 36%), OE (4 and 8%), and PE (4% and 16%). The impact of wheat flour replacement was evaluated on: i) dough mechanical properties, microstructure and fermentation; ii) bread volume, texture, and image analysis; ii) sensory properties and consumer preference. Finally, the impact of bread fortification on total and bioaccessible mineral composition, estimated mineral daily intake, and the relationship between bioaccessibility and dietary fibre was evaluated. Results showed that: i) optimum water absorption increased with higher concentrations of OE, PE, and YE; ii) development time for EE, PE, and YE was shortened while the opposite was observed for OE; iii) the onset of starch gelatinization and maximum tan δ significantly increased with 36% EE and 4% PE; iv) protein structure, observed with confocal laser scanning microscopy, was modified at varying extents by the addition of extracts, and were in accordance with results from fundamental rheology; v) maximum and final dough height significantly decreased, except for 4% EE. Wheat flour replacement also had impact on bread parameters, since: i) volume and specific volume decreased at the highest concentrations in every extract; ii) ix significant changes were observed in crumb texture and structure, at higher extract concentrations. Multivariate PLS regression highlighted relationships between dough and bread data, and suggested that TDF content seems to have a stronger influence than its composition (SDF and IDF fractions). Breads suitable for “high in fibre” claim (8% OE, 16% PE, and 36% EE) were not viable, due to the detrimental results on dough and bread properties. Nonetheless, it was possible to successfully obtain breads with the nutrition claim “source of fibre” (replacement at 4%). Data obtained from external preference mapping pointed the selection of fibre rich extracts concentrations with best acceptance i.e., 7.0% EE, 2.5% OE, 5.0% PE, and 2.5% YE. At these concentrations, all bread formulations were eligible for the nutrition claim “source of fibre”. Bread formulations with 7.0% EE and 5.0% PE registered more differences on colour and crumb structures than 2.5% OE and 2.5% YE, compared to control bread. Data collected from
