Using Yellow Pea Flours to Improvethe Glycemic Prof ile of Cereal Products
Pulses have a signifi cantly lower glycemic index (GI) (39-55) than white rice (80), white bread (100) and potatoes (121)1 and are a valuable means of lowering the glycemic index of the diet.
There is a growing body of evidence that shows pulse fl ours and fracti ons may also have a low glycemic response; however the impact of processing (such as milling technology) and thermal processing (such as extrusion) on glycemic response of these pulse products has not been fully investi gated.
Dry fi eld peas (Pisum sati vum) are a nutrient-dense food ingredient which have been increasingly used as fl our in value-added food applicati ons. The additi on of pea fl our to food products can increase the protein, fi ber, vitamin and mineral content in many foods.

• The additi on of peasemolina or fl our into extruded breakfast cereal led to a lower in vitro glucose release compared to an all-corn extruded breakfast cereal.
• Inclusion of pulse fl ours can help to improve the glycemic profi le of cereal-based food products.

Sif terTHE GLYCEMIC INDEX is a measure of the eff ect of carbohydrates on blood sugar levels. Carbohydrates that break down quickly during digesti on and release glucose rapidly into the bloodstream have a high GI; carbohydrates that break down more slowly, releasing glucose more gradually into the bloodstream have a low GI.
Commercially, roller mills are the most common grinding method for the reducti on of grain, parti cularly wheat, into fl our. As this process produces moderately fi ne fl ours within a moderately narrow parti cle size range, it was chosen for further explorati on of processing whole and split yellow peas.
A pilot scale Bühler roller mill was set up in durum milling mode to produce a coarse semolina and fl our with fi ne semolina and overs as additi onal products of the mill fl ow (Figure 1). Split yellow peas and whole yellow peas were roller milled to produce four types of fl our: whole yellow pea fl our, whole yellow pea semolina, split pea (refi ned) yellow
MILLING TECHNOLOGIES
pea fl our and split pea (refi ned) yellow pea semolina, and analyzed for nutriti onal quality (Table 1). Protein was concentrated in the semolina products compared to the fl ours and whole yellow pea semolina contained higher levels of fi ber compared to the whole fl our or refi ned pea semolina and fl our.
Each fl our type was used in a cornmeal/pea-based breakfast cereal formulati on (Table 2) with opti mized extrusion process parameters (Table 3). Breakfast cereals made from both the refi ned and whole pea semolina-based cereals contain signifi cantly higher protein content compared to those made from refi ned or whole yellow pea fl our ingredients.
Research suggests that fl our parti cle size can impact the in vitro glycemic response and this was further explored for pulse fl ours. Refi ned coarse yellow pea semolina (~600µm parti cle size) was remilled into fl our (~150µm parti cle size). Results showed the coarse yellow pea semolina had a lower in vitro glucose release (g glucose per 100g sample) than the refi ned yellow pea fl our, suggesti ng the larger parti cle size impacted glucose release. When the pea fl our and semolina were subjected to high temperature direct expansion extrusion, the in vitro glucose release diff erences due to parti cle size were eliminated with both pea products having similar release profi les (Figure 2).

Both yellow pea semolina and fl our were incorporated into the extruded breakfast cereal formulati on and all products analyzed for in vitro glucose release. Results showed that the additi on of the pea semolina or fl our into extruded breakfast cereal led to a lower in vitro glucose release over 360 minutes compared to an all-corn extruded breakfast cereal (Figure 3). These results suggest the incorporati on of pulse fl ours into commercially prepared cereal blends may help improve the glycemic profi le.
