However, despite the great efforts made in the last few decades
to produce GF pasta with sensory characteristics similar to durumwheat
products, the GF pasta currently on the market is still far
from what the consumer is looking for (Marti & Pagani, 2013).
Basically, in GF pasta, the role of gluten could be replaced by
choosing suitable formulations and recipes using the correct
amount of proteins, hydrocolloids and moisture to achieve the
desirable quality attributes after the traditional hydrothermal
treatment, but also making the dough easy to handle under industrial
conditions (Larrosa, Lorenzo, Zaritzky, & Califano, 2013).
