Effect of Processing, Cultivar, and Crop Year on Volatile Composition in Pulses and Pulse Flours Analyzed by Headspace Solid‐Phase Microextraction Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Low pulse consumption in the United States is linked to barriers such as lengthy cooking times, limited preparation knowledge, and undesirable taste or texture. Incorporating pulse flours into convenience products is a promising approach; however, volatile organic compounds responsible for off‐flavors hinder their broader acceptance.
