Valle, F.R. del | Marco, E. | Becker, R. | Saunders, R.M.
A 100 mesh flour was prepared from mesquite pods and its proximate chemical composition, amino acid and vitamin content determined. The flour was tested as an ingredient in beverages, pinole, candy, butter, breakfast cereals, and yogurt. Nutritional attributes of the products are discussed and ingredient cost estimates calculated. Taste panel studies indicated the most desirable mesquite flour containing products were mesquite candy chocolate/mesquite flour beverages, and breakfast cereals with added mesquite flour.
