The objective of this study was to assess the quality characteristics of morning-rolls containing various levels (0, 4, 8, and 12%) of bamboo leaf powder. The results demonstrated that morning-roll volume decreased with increasing amounts of bamboo leaf powder, and as the bamboo leaf powder content increased, the Hunter's color 'L', 'a' and 'b' values were significantly reduced (p<0.05). For the amylogram characteristics, the addition of bamboo leaf powder to the flour reduced peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and setback. The results of the sensory evaluation demonstrated that control (0%) and 8% addition of bamboo leaf powder had the best scores in taste, color, flavor, texture, appearance, softness, wetness, residual mouth feel, and overall acceptability. Thus, it appears that by using 8% additions of bamboo leaf powder, the functionality, nutritional composition, taste, color, and flavor of morning-rolls containing bamboo leaf powder can be developed. This result will support the development of better quality bamboo-leaf morning-rolls.
