Beetroot peel is a by-product obtained during the processing of beetroots and is an essential source of bioactive substances beneficial to health. This study used antioxidant-rich beetroot peels powder (BPP) in different concentrations (1.5, 3, 5, and 7%) to obtain value-added mayonnaise. The impact of BPP on the phytochemical composition, sensory characteristics, viscosity, color, and textural properties of the mayonnaises were also investigated. The BPP was characterized by a high betalain content (1.18 ± 0.03 mg/g DW) and rich polyphenolic content (225.36 ± 1.97 mg GAE/g DW) and showed high antioxidant activity. The purple-red colored powders added to the mayonnaise allowed a significant increase in total phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of purple-red colored powders added to the mayonnaise. The total color difference ΔE value in the mayonnaise samples increased with extract concentration. The instrumental texture analysis findings revealed that BPP addition to the mayonnaise increased the firmness, adhesiveness, and cohesiveness and improved the samples’ chewiness. The viscosity of mayonnaise was also significantly improved. The inclusion of BPP improved the color, according to sensory evaluation and overall acceptability of the mayonnaise formulation. The results give a novel formulation and technological insights into the influence of BPP-powder enrichment on the physical, sensory, and textural qualities of mayonnaise. BPP could be employed as a natural ingredient in several value-added emulsions, including sauces, mayonnaise, dressings, and creams.
(1) Background: This study is designed to extract the bioactive compounds from beetroot peel for future use in the food industry. (2) Methods: Spectrophotometry techniques analyzed the effect of conventional solvent extraction on betalains and polyphenolic compounds from beetroot peels. Several treatments by varying for factors (ethanol and citric acid concentration, temperature, and time) were applied to the beetroot peel samples. A Central Composite Design (CCD) has been used to investigate the effect of the extraction parameters on the extraction steps and optimize the betalains and total polyphenols extraction from beetroot. A quadratic model was suggested for all the parameters analyzed and used. (3) Results: The maximum and minimum variables investigated in the experimental plan in the coded form are citric acid concentration (0.10–1.5%), ethanol concentration (10–50%), operating temperature (20–60 °C), and extraction time (15–50 min). The experimental design revealed variation in betalain content ranging from 0.29 to 1.44 mg/g DW, and the yield of polyphenolic varied from 1.64 to 2.74 mg/g DW. The optimized conditions for the maximum recovery of betalains and phenols were citric acid concentration 1.5%, ethanol concentration 50%, temperature 52.52 °C, and extraction time 49.9 min. (4) Conclusions: Overall, it can be noted that the extraction process can be improved by adjusting operating variables in order to maximize the model responses.
