RESUMO

This work had for objective to evaluate the effect of the different proportions of whey and different concentrations of modified corn starch in a yield production, lactose crystals formation, color, water activity, texture profile (TPA), microbiological quality and dulce de leche acceptibility. The starch concentrations studied were zero, 0,25, 0,5 e 0,75% in bulk milk. The milk was replaced for whey in a proportion of zero, 15, 30 e 45%. Were evaluated 16 combining of whey and modified corn starch in two repetitions, resulting in 32 dulce de leche processing bathes. The acidity of milk and whey mixtures were corrected with sodium bicarbonate, until 13ºD; increases with 25% of sugar and differents % of starch; concentraded at temperature about 105ºC until 57ºBrix, increased with 2% of glucose and than concentraded until 68ºBrix. The dulce was then chilled at 70ºC, packed in a glass and stored at room temperature.The dulce chemical composition was evaluated, soon after the processing and the yield was calculated. Analysis of pH, water activity, lactose crystallization, instrumental color and profile texture (TPA) of dulce de leche were done monthly. The enumeration of mould and yeast and the presence of Staphylococcus aureus positive coagulase, as well as the sensory analysis of dulce de leche were done each three month of storage. The higher yields of processing were obtained for dulces prepared without increase of whey, independent of content of corn starch added. The increase of concentration in starch results in increase of dulce de leche humidad (p<0,01). The bigger the whey proportion used, the higher was the lactose contents (p<0,05). The dulce?s water activity increased with increase in % starch, but still almost unchangeable during the storage. There was no lactose crystals formation in size and number perceived sensority, during all storage time, independent of bach processing. Although the starch lead to a bigger water retention, the yeast and molds growth only exceed the permited legislation limits in some cases and after eight-month-storaged. During the storage time studied, every dulces showed absence of Staphylococcus aureus positive coagulase. The color instrumental evaluation showed that the bigger was the corn starch and whey concentrations the higher was the dulce de leche luminosity. The bigger the % of whey used, the higher was the intensity of red component (a*), that can be attributed on higher present lactose contents that resulting in major intensity of Maillard?s reaction. The increase of % starch results in decreases of red component (a*). The different % of starch and whey results in significant statistcty changes (p<0,01) in intensity of yelow component (b*); this variations were, however, very little and, probably, with no importance, in a practice point of view. The storage time almost doesn?t change the dulce de leche luminosity and the intensity of yeloow component (a*), but increased the red component (a*). The use of higher % corn starch results in increase of the viscosity and consistensy. The instrumental evaluation of profile texture showed that dulces exhibited a bigger smoothness and smaller adhesiveness, gumminess and springness when were made by combining the higher % of starch and whey. The dulce de leche cohesiveness increased with increased of % corn starch, independent of the whey proportion used. With the increase of the storage time, there was a slow and gradual loss of smoothness and cohesiveness, besides dulce de leche?s increase in the adhesiveness and gumminess. The dulce de leche fabricated with he major whey proportion (45%) and the higher starch corn concentration (0,75%), received the best acceptance notes in relation to appearance, color, consistency and the overall preference, the non-trained tasters attributed this dulce the higher intention of purchase, independent of storage time. There was sinerese in a dulce de leche, mainly when used 45% of whey combined with small % corn starch. In general, dulces with higher % of starch don?t show phase separation during long storage time. Higher concentration of whey (45%) and starch (0,75%) results in good physical and microbiologycal stability and excellent sensory acceptance.
