Tests were performed using a commercial standard semolina (Durakota No.1) from North Dakota Mill (Grand Forks, ND) and whole wheat flour (Ultragrain) from ConAgra Foods (Omaha, NE), with a protein content of 12.1 and 10.9%, 12% mb respectively. Flaxseed flour was obtained by milling golden flaxseed on a pilot scale hammer mill (Fitzmill, Elmhurst, IL). The ground flaxseed was separated into fine (600 mm) by using a sieve with a 34XXG mesh screen. Only the fine fraction was used in the pasta dough formulation.
