Resumo
Agroecology, a science that studies productive relations
between man and nature, and whose goal is ecological, economic,
social, cultural, political, and ethical sustainability, has been
increasingly used as a tool for social and cultural transformation.
Within that perspective, the Brazilian Cerrado provides fruits
such as baru, which is highly genetically variable, but also
widely used as a source of income by the regional population. The
objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical and physical
characteristics of baru pulp, along a 181-day storage period.
For that purpose, weight and size analyses, centesimal analysis,
monitoring of changes, and sensorial analysis of dry biscuits, in
which 25% of the wheat flour was replaced by baru pulp, were
carried out. Physical characteristics such as weight, length, and
width did not present significant differences, during the storage
period. The level of total sugars and reducers increased during
the storage period, unlike the tannin level, which decreased.
Baru pulp may be considered an important source of sugars and
dietary fiber. In addition, the biscuits obtained satisfactory scores
for both taste and appearance, on the acceptability test, and their
nutritional quality increased.
