EDIBLE BOWLS MADE FROM CEREALS

Nowadays, simplifying manual labour in catering, saving time and using body-friendly containers and packaging in catering is a thought-provoking issue. Therefore, this work provides for the creation of environmentally friendly, economical, innovative disposable and waste-free containers in public catering facilities.
The disposable tableware in question can serve as a replacement for functional tableware made of edible material, as well as used in the field of public catering, made of traditional glass, ceramics or plastic.
In this work an edible containers of cereal powder were obtained. Two samples of wheat and rice flour and a mixture of maize and rice flour were prepared from the cereals, and their nutritional value and utilization efficiency were compared.
From the cereal flours, a steep dough was prepared and baked in a "cup" shape. The stability of the container during storage with hot ready-to-eat food was observed over time.
Water absorption capacity of the studied samples was at the level of 228-250%, energy value – 395.6-397.2 kcal per 100 g of product.
Disposable edible tableware is an efficient tableware that saves time when serving food, facilitates manual labour (dishwashing), is environmentally friendly and reduces costs in the thermal process of cooking.
