Optimization of Aquafaba Production by Response Surface Methodology and Application in Plant-Based Mayonnaise
Abstract
Aquafaba is the liquid left over after the chickpeas are boiled and canned. Aquafaba, which is used as an egg replacer in vegan products, is a valuable by-product that has become popular in recent years. The components that are transferred from chickpea into water during the boiling process provide foaming and emulsion-forming capabilities. The composition and functionality of aquafaba are affected by parameters such as boiling time, pH, and solid-liquid ratio. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pH, time and solid-liquid ratio on various characteristics of aquafaba and to optimize aquafaba production using Response Surface Methodology. The °Brix, pH, foaming capacity, stability and emulsion activity index values were measured in 15 aquafaba samples produced according to the experimental design. The °Brix values of the samples ranged from 1.12 to 2.22. The foaming properties of the samples at pH 4.0 yielded significantly higher foam value and stability compared to the other samples. While the foam volume varied between 58.5 and 74.5%, the foam stability varied between 4.6-83.8%. The emulsion activity index was affected by the solidliquid ratio and varied between 96.8 and 99.1%. In conclusion, aquafaba characteristics changed depending on pH, time, and solidliquid ratio. The optimization was performed according to the Box-Behnken design and the optimum parameters were identified as pH:3.58, time: 80 min and solid-liquid ratio: 0.25. Characteristics of plant-based mayonnaise prepared with optimized aquafaba was compared with commercial regular and vegan mayonnaise samples. The quality characteristics of the product can be improved by making further formulation revisions. Within the scope of this study, aquafaba was successfully used in the formulation of plant-based mayonnaise.
