Sacha inchi seed (Plukenetia volubilis) has long been used for its high protein content and essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6 9). After obtaining the oil, a by-product called dry cake is generated, recent studies have shown that this cake, which generally wasted, content. In investigation, residue from oil extraction Inchi was used, dried subjected to several treatments (dehydration, grinding sieving) obtain fine flour. To product, chemical physical analyzes were performed (moisture,...

Abstract Agricultural by-products are relevant sources of valuable bioactive compounds, such as fiber, which its regular ingestion is associated with health benefits. This study evaluated the chemical, microbiological, and sensory properties ice cream using sugarcane bagasse a partial fat replacer fiber-enrichment component. Three formulations containing 15% (T1); 20% (T2) 25% (T3) sieved dried fiber were produced compared against control (C) without including by-product. Fat content...
