Consumption of noodles in Indonesia is increasing and this has an impact on increasing imports of wheat flour. Sorghum is considered to have the potential to be used as a substitute for wheat flour, because it has a fairly good nutrient content. However, it has anti-nutritional properties which can reduce digestibility. To increase digestibility, sorghum flour is modified by fermentation using Lactobacillus plantarum (Modified Sorghum Flour / MOSOF). The use of MOSOF as a substitute for wheat flour cannot be 100%, this is because there is no gluten content. Research using MOSOF substitution in dried noodle products is still rarely done, so this study determined the best formula of MOSOF as a substitute for wheat flour in making dried noodles. The results showed that fermentation can increase protein, starch and moisture component of sorgum flour. Besides, the proportion of 50:50 (wheat flour: MOSOF) and egg 25% was chosen as the best treatment, because it can improve the physical and chemical quality of dried noodle products, including rehydration (%), elasticity (%), ash (% wb) and moisture (% wb) than 70:30 (wheat flour: MOSOF) (p<0.05).
Stevia was known to have potential as a sugar substitute sweetener that can be used in various processed foods, including biscuits. The problem in making biscuits was the use of granulated sugar which can increase human blood glucose and was dangerous for people with diabetes mellitus, so we needed a sugar substitute that was safe for diabetics, like a stevia, and fructose syrup. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of stevia leaf powder and fructose syrup on the physicochemical and sensory properties of biscuits products based on mocaf and pedada flour. The experiment was conducted using a completely randomized design with two factors such as stevia leaf powder (1.5%, 2%, and 2.5%) and fructose syrup (10%, 15% and 20%). The best results were obtained that biscuits with 1.5% stevia leaf powder and of 10% fructose syrup which characteristics: 81.55% of yield, 3.32% of moisture, 2.13% of ash, 9.94% of fat, 10.28% of protein, 74.33% of carbohydrates, and organoleptic of taste 3.08 (slightly like), color 3.80 (like), aroma 3.68 (like), and texture 4.56 (like very much).
Jelly drink is a gel-based beverage product, which can be made from hydrocolloid compounds by addition of sugars, acids, and or without other food additives, sinbiotics are a combination of probiotics and prebiotics. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect concentration of carrageenan and fermentation timt on the quality of jelly drink sinbiotik soy milk and red dragon fruit extract. The method used in this research is Completely Randomized Design with two factors. The first factor was the concentration of carrageenan (0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%) and the second factor of fermentation time (18 hours, 20 hours, 22 hours and 24 hours). To know the difference between treatments used Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT 5%). The results showed that the best treatment was the addition of carrageenan 0,8% and the fermentation time of 24 hours which resulted jelly drink sinbiotik with pH value 3,7, total acid 1,02%, total lactic acid bacteria (BAL) 11,13 log cfu/ml, total sugar 7.92%, 1.89% dissolved protein, total anthocyanin 0.645% and gel strength 3.27 N.
Biscuit formulation was produced from the partial substitution of wheat flour using mangrove fruit flour (MFF) with the addition of an emulsifier. In this study, Pedada (Sonneratia caseolaris) and Lindur (Bruguiera ghymnorhiza) were used as two varieties of MFF. Lecithin and sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL) was used to enhance the physical properties of the biscuits. An experiment was conducted by replacing wheat flour with MFF at different levels (0%, 20%, and 30%). Margarine, sugars, eggs, glucose syrups, and emulsifiers were added after mixing wheat flour with MFF, baking powder, and milk powder uniformly. Dough sheets were formed and baked on a greased tray at 1500C for 10 to 15 min. The biscuits produced were analyzed for spread ratio, breaking strength, and color (L*, a*, and b*), ranging from 4.13–5.07; 54.07–89.77 N; and 34.70–50.90 L*, 15.17–18.80 a*, and 12.00–28.07 b*, respectively. The analysis of chemical composition showed that the carbohydrate ranged from 90.99–93.60%, protein 4.26–7.12%, fat 0.22–0.59%, ash 0.93–1.75%, and moisture 0.88–1.36%, and the energy value spanned over 391.10–395.33 cal/100 g. Sensory evaluation rating, substitution of 20% with MFF, and SSL addition had the highest acceptability compared to other formulations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
