The Effect of Coriander Oil Addition to Goat Feed on the Technological Properties of the Resultant Milk; Rayeb as a Product Model

Abstract

Goat milk is an essential alternative milk resource for those suffering from cow and buffalo milk allergies and is considered a nutrient protein source for children and neonates. This paper aims to answer the question: Does adding crude coriander oil to goats' food affect the quality of their milk and the properties of their products? Study the chemical, rheological, and microbiological properties and the acceptability of probiotic goat's rayeb milk. Two coriander oil concentrations were used in the study; a low level of 0.95% (T1) and a high level of 1.9% (T2). The results declared that coriander oil did not affect the coagulation time, which was almost six hours for all batches. At the same time, the apparent viscosity decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in T2 with the high oil level. Moreover, treatments showed a significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase in the content of monounsaturated fatty acids and a decrease in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Low-level oil supplementation showed the best rayeb properties, surpassing the control treatment in most properties and higher sensory scores.
