Assessing the potential of brewer’s spent grain to enhance cookie physicochemic...
Nicolai, Marisa; Palma, Maria Lídia; Reis, Ricardo; Amaro, Rúben; Fernandes, Jaime; Gonçalves, Elsa M.; Silva, Mafalda; Lageiro, ManuelaBrewers’ spent grain (BSG), the major by-product of the brewery industry, has high nutritional value, making it suitable for upcycling into products such as healthy, and sustainable cookies. Nonetheless, the incorporation of BSG in cookies can impact their quality, given the increased fiber and protein content. This work explored the effect of replacing wheat flour with BSG at 50% and 75% in cookie formulations...
Clean label approaches in cheese production: where are we?
Fernandes, Jaime; Gomes, Sandra; Reboredo, Fernando H.; Pintado, Manuela E.; Amaral, Olga; Dias, João; Alvarenga, NunoThe Clean Label concept has gained significant traction in the cheese industry due to consumer preferences for minimally processed cheeses free from synthetic additives. This review explores different approaches for applying Clean Label principles to the cheese industry while maintaining food safety, sensory quality, and shelf life. Non-thermal technologies, such as high-pressure processing (HPP), pulsed electr...
Impact of different Cynara cardunculus L. extracts on the physicochemical, micr...
Alvarenga, Nuno; Fernandes, Jaime; Gomes, Sandra; Fidalgo, Liliana; Santos, Teresa; Conceição, Cristina; Dias, JoãoThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of different Cynara cardunculus L. extracts on the physicochemical, microbial, and sensory properties of PDO Serpa cheese, including moisture content, texture, nitrogen fractions, fatty acid profile, microbial characteristics, and overall acceptance. Cheese samples were produced in two dairies (C and G) with three cardoon coagulants (J, C, and G) and analyzed at the begin...

Development of a functional dark chocolate with baobab pulp
Monteiro, Sara; Lourenço, Vanda; Partidário, Ana; Lageiro, Manuela; Lampreia, Célia; Fernandes, Jaime; Lidon, Fernando; Reboredo, Fernando; Dias, JoãoIn recent years, cocoa and dark chocolate have attracted the interest of consumers not only for their sensory characteristics but also for their nutritional properties and positive impact on health. The baobab is a fruit of African origin with a sour and slightly sweet flavour, widely consumed by local communities due to its unique nutritional features. The aim of this work was to evaluate the impact of the con...
Elemental Composition of Commercial Herbal Tea Plants and Respective Infusions
Fernandes, Jaime; Reboredo, Fernando H.; Luís, Inês; Silva, Maria Manuela; Simões, Maria M.; Lidon, Fernando C.; Ramalho, José C.This study evaluated the elemental composition of 25 herbal tea plants commonly used in infusions by Portuguese consumers and the contribution to the elemental daily intake of some essential elements. Hydrocotyle asiatica (L.), Matricaria chamomilla (L.), and Melissa officinalis (L.) samples are a rich source of K with around 6.0 mg g-1 while the Asteraceae Silybum marianum (L.) and Echinacea angustifolia (DC.)...
