The temperature effect during autohydrolysis of natural and blanched broccoli was studied. For this purpose, the extraction yield, total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity and glucosinolates type and content of the autohydrolysis liquors have been determined. The development of alginate based hydrogels using the autohydrolysis liquid phase as solvent and the corresponding textural characterisation was also evaluated. In all cases, extraction yields rose with the autohydrolysis temperature up to 150 °C and then decreased. For liquors from natural samples, total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity increased with increasing operation temperature. The opposite trend was identified for blanched samples. Comparable values were obtained at 150 °C for liquors from natural samples and those blanched treated at 100 °C. Glucosinolates content decreased with increasing temperature. Glucoiberin, glucoraphanin, gluconapin, glucobrassicin and gluconasturniin were detected. Hydrogels with suitable textural properties were formulated with the extracted liquors at 100 and 150 °C, independently of the blanching treatment.
