AbstractOrange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) flour is rich in health-promoting compounds that can improve the nutritional benefits of baked products when blended with wheat flour. However, the flour particle size and blend proportion may affect the quality properties and consumer acceptability of bakery products. This study investigated the effect of flour particle sizes and blend proportions on the physical, nutritional, textural and sensory properties of peeled and unpeeled OFSP composite flour cookies. Peeled and unpeeled OFSP flours (≤ 250 μm and ≤ 500 μm particle size) were produced, and each was used to replace soft wheat flour at the rate of 0 to 100% for cookies formulation. The results obtained showed that substitution of wheat flour with OFSP flours significantly (p < 0.05) decreased cookies baking loss, thickness, volume, crust lightness (L*) but increased diameter, spread ratio, crust redness, yellowness, contents of ß-carotene, vitamin A, ascorbic acid, total phenolics and flavonoids, and the antioxidant capacity. The hardness and fracturability of the OFSP-based cookies ranged between 1.389 and 10.142 kg and 0.873 and 9.431 kg, respectively, whereas the values of the control cookies were 1.281 ± 0.003 kg and 1.274 ± 0.003 kg, respectively. The effect of flour particle size on the physical and nutritional properties of cookies was insignificant (p > 0.05). However, the ≤ 250 μm particle size flour cookies had higher overall acceptability than the ≤ 500 μm particle size flour cookies. The unpeeled OFSP composite cookies had higher bioactive compounds concentrations except for ascorbic acid but had lower overall acceptability than the peeled OFSP cookies. Generally, the 30% peeled OFSP composite flour cookies had the highest consumer acceptability.

The good use of food is one of the fundamental points of the food security of the populations especially in the developing countries. Therefore, for convincing results, the methods of strengthening nutritional knowledge by improving the culinary practices of vulnerable populations must take into account the dietary habits of the targets. The objective of the present study was to contribute to the consumption of the project crops to develop food formulations. In practice, eight (8) cornmeal formulas using soybeans and orange-fleshed sweet potatoes have been proposed and submitted to the grantees. The different proportions of ingredient to be mixed were obtained by the Pearson&#39;s Square method. Analysis of the sensory evaluation data was possible to the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21 and the different results were presented in the form of radar graphs. The results showed that simultaneously flours and &ldquo;kabato&rdquo; accepted by the populations of the study area were formulations of: - E: 72.26 percent of maize flour and 27.74 percent of sweet potato flour - F: 53.76 percent of corn flour and 46.24 percent of sweet potato flour - G: 89.3 percent of composite flour (maize and sweet potato) and 10.7 percent of soya flour - H: 78.09 percent of composite flour (maize and sweet potato) and 21.91 percent of soya flour So, it can be envisaged to implement a strategy for a better vulgarization of these methods.

The effect of addition of Eucheuma cotttonii and Sargassum sp. on chemical composition, antioxidant activity and sensory properties of purple sweet potato jam (Ipomoea batatas Poir) ABSTRACT         This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of Eucheuma cottonii and Sargassum sp. on chemical composition, antioxidant activity and sensory properties of purple sweet potato jam. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of four treatments using the combination of Sargassum sp., E. cottonii and purple sweet potatoes respectively: 45: 5: 50% (S1), 40: 10: 50% (S2), 35 : 15 : 50 % (S3), 30 : 20 : 50% (S4) and repeat three times. The results of the research obtained showed a real effect on sensory values which included color, aroma, and texture. The test results of the chemical content of jam showed water content between 27.62 %, ash content 1.59 %, crude fiber 1.44 % and carbohydrates 88.96 %. The test results of antioxidant content with percentage inhibitor (IC50) that is 337.81 μg / mL respectively. The results of this study indicate that there is an influence on the content of water content, ash, crude fiber, total carbohydrates and antioxidant content present in the purple sweet potato jam in each treatment.Keywords: Eucheuma cottonii, Ipomoea batatas, chemical composition and antioxidants, Sargassum sp., Jam, Sensory test ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan rumput laut jenis Eucheuma cottonii dan Sargassum sp. terhadap komposisi kimia, aktivitas antioksidan dan sifat sensori selai ubi jalar ungu.

The research is aimed at adding value to sweet potato based biscuits using underutilized crops such as cashew nuts. The objective of the study was to add value to sweet potato based biscuits, the sweet potato was processed into flour; while the cashew nuts was unroasted cashew nuts were sorted to remove the stones, dirt’s and unwholesome cashew nuts, roasted, shelled, dried, peeled and processed into flour and sieved. The cashew nuts flour was substituted at 20, 30, 40 and 50% into sweet potato flour to produce sweet potato and cashew nuts composite flour were  used for the production of biscuits. Functional, proximate composition of the biscuits, physical and sensory properties of composite biscuits were determined. Significance difference (P<0.05) was observed Bulk density, water absorption capacity, oil absorption capacity, swelling capacity, emulsion activity, foaming stability and gelatinization temperature increased from 0.62 to 0.73 g/cm3, 1.31 to 1.81 g/g, 2.10 to 2.22 g/g, 6.42 to 7.18 ml, 59.71 to 60.51%, 6.19 to 6.43% and 68.20 to 72.10ºC, respectively with an increase in the addition of cashew nuts flour. The crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and ash increase from 14.65 to 18.31%, 7.88 to 10.21%, 3.21 to 3.51% and 4.10 to 4.76% respectively; while the moisture and carbohydrate content of the biscuits decreased from 13.77 to 13.31% and 56.39 to 49.89%, respectively with increase in the addition of the cashew nuts flour. The physical properties of the composite biscuits such as the weight, thickness, diameter and spread ratio ranged from 16.09 to 17.45 g, 10.87 to 10.96 mm, 38.94 to 40.02 mm and 3.56 to 3.60 respectively. The average means scores for the appearance, crispness, taste, aroma and overall acceptability increase were observed. There was a significant difference (p<0.05) in the appearance, taste and aroma while there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the crispness and overall acceptability.

Application of wheat flour in various food products has increased the import of wheat flour over years. The use of domestically grown crops like Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) could reduce the demand of wheat. Sorghum flour can be used in partial substitution with wheat flour for many food products, like cookies. The use of sorghum as cookies ingredient could be combined with other flours to get a composite flour. The purpose of this research was to obtain proportion of sorghum flour, sweet potato flour and soyabean flour that produce cookies with good organoleptic characteristics. The proportion of composite flour adequacy was calculated using a list of foodstuffs (DKBM).The research method was based on Experimental Method with Randomized Block Design (RBD) in twelve treatments and two repetitions. The treatments were proportion of sorghum flour (6 minutes, 8 minutes, 10 minutes of dehulling time), sweet potato flour, and soyabean flour. The results showed that cookies made with proportion of sorghum flour, sweet potato flour, and soyabean flour gave no significant difference in organoleptic characteristics (Overall, color, taste, aroma, and hardness).  The result also showed that the characteristics of the cookies were not affected by dehulling of sorghum grains but influenced by other ingredient than flour. Keywords: Sorghum, Sweet Potato Flour,  Soyabean Flour, Cookies, Sensory Properties
