Summary:
The aim of the project was to test the possibility of using secondary waste materials produced in specialized processing plants and households. Two model substrates were used: potato peelings and olive pomace waste. The mechanical impurities of the skins were previously cleaned and washed. The substrate was homogenized and used in different percentages by weight for incorporation into bakery products (bread and biscuits). The olive pomace waste was used as an ingredient for fresh stuffed pasta. After the results of the laboratory experiments, the final formulations of the products were prepared. The prototype pilot products were evaluated in terms of their organoleptic properties.
