Fate of proteic and lipidic compounds during production of a traditional legume condiment (Soumbala) made from African Locust Bean ( Parkia biglobosa ) seeds
Archive ouverte
International audience. Soumbala is made from African locust bean seeds (Parkia biglobosa), a legume widely spread in west Africa. It is a lipid and protein-rich condiment obtained by three main steps: cooking, fermentation and drying. Ten different analysis were made on AFLBS samples at each step with a particular focus on protein and lipid fates. Results showed that cooking decreased markedly the carbohydrate content leaving mainly proteins and lipids as substrates for fermentation. During this step, 20% of the proteins were converted into free amino acids, mainly glutamic acid and tyrosine. Significant biogenic amines release occurred and reached 50 mg per 100 g of dried ALBS. Di-glycerides and fatty acids increased markedly and represented 11% and 7% of the total lipids of dried ALBS. These results give a complete view of the nutritional characteristics of dried ALBS, its benefit but also its defects that arise during fermentation and not suppressed by the subsequent processing steps.
