Abstract: | Soaking of horse gram (Dolichos biflorus) in a solution of 1.5% NaHCO3, 0.5% Na2CO3, and 0.75% citric acid for 12 h was found to be effective in reducing cooking time from 145 to 27 min. The treatment improved protein digestibility of cooked horse gram from 69 to 78%. Horse gram cooked after pre-treatment with soak solution had 35% less amount of polyphenols than that in untreated cooked samples. The suitability of this treatment for reducing cooking time of several other legumes was evaluated. |
