Notes:
A commercially available extrusion cooker was successfully used to produce pre-cooked corn flours for use in making arepas, a thick unsalted unleavened corn cake worked by hand into small patties and. then roasted. Sixteen trials were run and eight flour samples were obtained that formed a consistent dough that was easy to shape into arepas. The arepas were roasted and observed from l-20 hr afterwards and no change was noted in sensory or textural properties. This extrusion cooker can be used for elaborating pre-cooked corn flour for arepa production.
