Abstract

The study focused on production of breads from blends of wheat and tuber flours fortified with melon seed meal (MSM). Fresh roots of Cassava (C), Sweet (S) Potato, Irish (I) Potatoes were peeled, ground, dewatered, dried and milled to obtain the respective flours. Dehulled, cleaned melon seeds were air-dried, ground and one part defatted with aqueous ethanol to obtain defatted (D) melon seed meal and the remaining full (F) fat melon seed meal (MSM). Tuber flours (25%) were individually blended with wheat (W) flour (65%) and fortified with either 10% full fat(F) or defatted(D) MSM. The nine code-named samples were: WCF (65:25:10), WCD (65:25:10), WIF (65:25:10), WID (65:25:10), WSF (65:5:10), WSD (65:25:10), W (100:0:0), WF (90:10) and WD (90:10). Blends were used to produce bread; both the breads and blends were evaluated for proximate composition, physical and sensory properties. Sieve analysis revealed that cassava flour had the highest retention on >0.71>1mm sieves, wheat flour on >0.30> 0.50mm sieves and Irish potato on
