On the way from Tradition to Innovation ‘Çankırı’, Snack Food Production: Yoka Crackers

Abstract

In general, functional foods are defined with their advantages containing basic nutritional elements, promoting health, preventing some diseases, and reducing the ratio of some disorders due to a component in it. Today, the production, consumption, import and export of packaged fast food products, which are called 'snacks' with functional qualities, have become quite widespread. In this study, pomace with high nutritional fiber content, which is separated as a by-product in olive oil production and used as an organic fire source or fertilizer without any technologic process and caused environmental pollution, was reprocessed and met with Çankırı traditional phyllo (yoka) bread. Thus, a dietary snack food (Yoka Cracker) enriched in terms of fiber content, low in salt-based sodium content, and in which no oil is used, was produced. Therefore, the olive pomace, which contains valuable nutritional components, was managed to return back to the economy. The presented work includes the results of the first workpackage of our R&D project. Accordingly, traditional yoka-bread production was learned on-site by food and chemical engineers graduated from Çankırı Karatekin University, traditional production style was transferred to younger generations, traditional production conditions and parameters were optimized and adapted into industrial production. Yoka Crackers were flavored with various spices and fresh green vegetables. As a result of the R&D activities carried out, it was found that a portion of Yoka Cracker has 112 kcal.
