Evaluation of Oxidative Stability of Full Fat Soybean Flour in Storage and Sensory Quality of Tuo Zaafi-Enriched with Soy Flour as Influenced by Traditional Processing Methods

The oxidative stability of pretreated full-fat soybean flour (FFSF) was evaluated under commercial (Experiment I) and accelerated conditions (Experiment II). In Experiment I, soybeans were pretreated using germination, soaking (24 h), or roasting (110–120 °C), and the dried, milled FFSF was stored for 120 days under commercial storage conditions in two cities in Ghana. Acid value (AV) and peroxide value (PV) were determined. The proximate and sensory quality of Tuo Zaafi, a maize-only dish in northern Ghana enriched with 10–30% of the pretreated FFSF, was assessed. Before storage, all samples had similar PV (1.907–4.305 mEq/kg oil); however, the AV of the germinated sample was higher than that of the unprocessed samples (10.83 vs. 3.13 mgKOH/g oil; p < 0.001). After storage, although AV fluctuated, the PV was similar (2.39–3.74 mEq/kg oil; p = 1.00). Storage location showed no significant differences in terms of AV (4.96–4.97 mgKOH/g oil; p = 0.994), unlike PV (2.07–3.55 mEq/kg oil; p < 0.001). Increasing the levels of the pretreated FFSF in Tuo Zaafi resulted in lower consumer preference scores for all sensory attributes. In Experiment II, FFSF samples (dehulled and nondehulled) prepared from germination, soaking (18 h and 24 h) and roasting were evaluated under accelerated conditions (AC) of controlled temperature (45 ± 0.1 °C) and relative humidity (81 ± 1%) for AV, PV, p-anisidine value (pAV), lipoxygenase activity (LOX), color, and moisture. Pretreatment, condition, time, and their interaction affected the oxidative stability of all FFSF samples (p < 0.001). Roasted samples showed the highest increase in AV and pAV in both storage conditions (p < 0.05). Under room temperature conditions (RTC), the roasted and germinated samples had lower LOX activity (p < 0.05) at the end of storage time compared to that of the controls. In conclusion, germination and soaking reduced oxidation of FFSF, while roasting promotes it, despite its common use.
