| Abstract The study was aimed to investigate the effect of different salep properties on ice cream quality parameters. Therefore, salep samples obtained from six different Orchidaceae spp. were examined for glucomannan and starch contents. Statistically significant differences were observed between the glucomannan and starch levels, viscosity values (between 23.90 cP and 430.90 cP), and overrun levels (between % 32.62 and % 42.46) of ice cream mixes and melting qualities of ice cream samples according to species of the salep sample (p < 0.05). It is concluded that high-glucomannan (> 40%) containing salep samples, which were obtained from the species (O. mascula ssp. pinetorum, S. vomeracea ssp. vomeracea) have significantly desired effects on the... |
