Textural characteristics of ready-to-eat breakfast cereals produced from different types of cereal and with varying water addition during extrusion process
Textural characteristics of ready-to-eat breakfast cereals were evaluated in order to determine the influence of wheat, corn and rice flour, as well as a varying water addition during the extrusion process. Extruded breakfast cereal balls were made of wheat semolina in combination with wheat, corn o...
