Physiochemical Characterization and Antioxidant Potential of Sorghum and Cork Oak as Valuable Additives to Traditional Trida Pasta

This study aimed to valorize underutilized local ingredients by developing nutritionally enhanced pasta products enriched with sorghum and cork oak flours. The resulting pasta samples were characterized by their chemical composition, color attributes, functional properties, texture, microstructure, and antioxidant capacity. Semolina-based pasta showed higher protein content, while cork oak flour contributed significantly to lipid content, and sorghum flour was notably rich in fiber and...
