In this study, the possibility of producing a cheese-like product from the partial substitution of soy milk with almond milk was investigated. The extracted almond milk was mixed with soy milk in a variable proportion of 10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 40:60, 50:50, and the control is soya milk alone (0:100) to produce a cheese-like product. Control and partially substituted cheese-like samples were stored in a refrigerator at a temperature of 4oC and examined for proximate, total titrable acidity, pH, total solid and sensory properties. The total titrable acidity of the cheese was between 0.23% and 0.33%, representing a significant increase in total titrable acidity from 0.23% to 0.33%. The pH increased with increase in the almond milk in the cheese, which varied between 6.45 and 6.90. The proximate composition ranged from 25.67%-29.97% for protein, 22.79%-26.45% for moisture, 30.58%-36.99% for fat, 7.02%-14.61% for carbohydrate, 1.20%-1.79% for ash, and 0.90%-2.03% for fibre. Protein and fat contents increased with increase in almond milk substitution, while carbohydrate and ash content decrease with increasing almond milk substitution. Sensory evaluation revealed a significant difference (p <0.05) in colour, taste, texture and overall acceptability, influenced by the varying proportions of added almond milk. However, there is no significant difference in aroma. The blend with 30% almond milk and 70% soy milk was most acceptable to panelists. The study showed the potential of almond milk as an alternative source of milk in cheese making with improved nutritional value and increased acceptability for the consumer.

<p>Tomato purees were produced from <em>De Rica </em>and<em> Roma</em> cultivars of tomato, packaged in high density polyethylene and stored at ambient temperature (32±2 ºC). The stored purees were analysed weekly for physicochemical composition, sensory attributes and microbial load until they became unwholesome. There was a significant (p&lt;0.05) falling in Titratable Acidity (TTA) within the first five and six weeks for <em>De Rica</em> and <em>Roma</em> purees respectively. TTA values dropped from 12.43 to 8.40 and 10.69-7.43 for <em>De Rica</em> and <em>Roma</em> purees respectively. Total solid (TS) of the purees decreased significantly (p&lt;0.05) from 16.2% to 9.08% for <em>De Rica</em> puree and 17.89% to 9.99% for <em>Roma</em> puree within the first four weeks of storage and became stable at the later weeks of storage. <em>Roma</em> puree had higher TS throughout the storage period. Total Insoluble Solid of the purees increased significantly from 3.07% and 4.01% for <em>De</em><em> </em><em>Rica</em> puree and 2.3% and 3.44% for <em>Roma</em> puree within the first week of storage. The values however, decreased significantly is (p&lt;0.05) at the second week of storage from 4.01% to 1.19% for <em>De Rica</em> puree and 3.44% to 1.89% for <em>Roma</em> puree. The bulk density of the samples decreased significantly (p&lt;0.05) from 1.14g/ml to 0.95 g/ml for <em>De Rica</em> puree and 1.12 g/ml to 0.95 g/ml for <em>Roma</em> puree through the storage period. There was an insignificant (p&gt;0.05) increase in total bacteria count from 140 CFU/g to 320 CFU/g for <em>De Rica</em> puree and 126 CFU/g to 280 CFU/g for <em>Roma</em> puree within the first two weeks of storage. The values increased significantly (p&lt;0.05) from 640 CFU/g to 137,000 CFU/g for <em>De Rica</em> puree and 590 CFU/g to 122,000 for <em>Roma</em> puree from the third to the tenth week of storage. There was no significant difference (p&gt;0.05) between the freshly produced <em>De Rica</em> puree, <em>Roma</em> puree and the commercial sample in appearance, colour, taste and overall acceptability before and during storage. Marked rejection of the purees was observed at the eight week of storage.</p>

This paper compared the chemical (Proximate and mineral), acidity, microbial count and organoleptic properties of yoghurt samples produced from Nigeria locally bred goat and cow milk with commercially retail yoghurt during 14days of refrigerated storage. Yoghurt production was conducted by inoculation of the milk samples at 43oC for 6hrs with 2% of streptococcus thermophillus and lactobacillus bulgarus active culture. The total ash content of yoghurt ranges from 0.23g/100g in the commercial yoghurt sample to 0.84g/100g in yoghurt from goat  milk which is considered significantly higher than that observed for yoghurt from cow milk. The commercially retail yoghurt had a significantly higher (P < 0.05) total solid matter than yoghurt from goat and cow milk. Calcium and phosphorus contents were significantly (P < 0.05) lowest in the commercial yoghurt (0.28%) to a significant higher value of 0.28% in goat milk. A statisitically significant drop in pH values was observed in the commercial yoghurt sample after one and two week storage compared to yoghurt from goat and cow milk. High lactic acid bacteria were observed in yoghurt from cow milk with lactococci group being higher than the lactobacilli group throughout the storage period. The yeast count range from a significant low (P < 05) value of 2.22 cfu/ml-1 in commercial yoghurt sample to 3.22 and 3.24 in goat and cow milk respectively on day zero of storage. By the 7days of storage, the commercially retail yoghurt was significant (P < 0.05) least desirable with respect to colour, taste and overall acceptability while there was no significant difference in the consistency of all the yoghurt samples.

Chin-Chin, a traditional Nigerian snack was prepared utilizing wheat-fermented maize residue composite flour at 0 – 30% replacement levels. Effects of this addition on the functional and pasting properties of the flour composite was evaluated. The snack produced was also evaluated for its sensory attributes, proximate composition and invitro-protein digestibility (IVPD). Functional properties results showed an increase in water absorption capacity (WAC), a decrease in oil absorption capacity (OAC), decrease in Bulk Density (BD), swelling power and solubility index with residue addition. Pasting property results showed a drop in the value of peak, trough, breakdown and final viscosity with substitution while set back viscosity increased.Peak temperature decreased, but values for pasting temperature showed no significant difference between the control and the blends. Results for sensory evaluation showed equal preference for overall acceptability. Proximate composition results showed residue addition led to an increase in crude fibre and protein content with a drop in the carbohydrate value. Residue addition did not increase protein digestibility. Addition of fermented maize residue in chin-chin production can be another way of utilizing the fibre rich by-product of the production of fermented maize starch.

Standardized milk having casein: fat ratio 0.92 was used and the processes were optimized for the manufacture of cheeses. The samples were analyzed for physico-chemical properties (moisture, total solid, fat, protein, ash, calcium, fat retention, protein retention, yield) and functional properties such as meltability, stretchability, baking quality and shreddability were also analyzed. Significant differences (p<0.05) were found in calcium content of the cheese, color and overall sensory properties. Stretchability and shreddability in relation to functional properties were also found to be significantly different. The yield for mozzarella cheese made using rennet was higher than that of cheese made using kiwi juice as milk coagulant and also it was superior in terms of overall functional properties. It was deemed that a good quality mozzarella cheese with variant characteristics can be prepared by using kiwi juice as milk coagulant.

Local Aba made melon shelling machine type I (sample B) and improved Aba made melon shelling machine type 2 (sample C) were used to shell melon seeds and compared with hand shelling method (sample A). The shelling efficiency, quality of shelled melon seeds, functional properties of the seed flours and sensory properties of egusi soups prepared from the melon seeds were determined. The results revealed that sample A gave the highest shelling efficiency of 92.25%, followed by sample C (90.42%) and the least was sample B (80.85%). For the quality of shelled melon seeds, sample A gave the highest score of 95.88%, following by sample C (94.46%) while sample B gave the least score of 79.84%. There was no significant difference (P> 0.05) in the proximate composition of the melon seeds obtained from the three shelling methods (samples A, B and C). There were no significant difference (P>0.05) in all the selected functional properties between samples A and C while sample B had significantly lower values in all the functional properties that were studied. The mean scores for overall acceptability of egusi soup prepared from the shelled melon seeds were; samples A (7.95), sample B (6.02) and sample C (7.72). Functional and sensory properties of the melon seeds shelled by the improved Aba made melon shelling machine type 2 compared favourably with the hand shelled melon seeds. Hence, it can be recommended for commercial operations to meet the demands of industrial and commercial markets.

The effect of partial substitution of NaCl with KCl on texture profile, soluble Ca, K, Na, and P, and microstructure of low-moisture mozzarella cheese (LMMC) was investigated. LMMC batches were prepared using four combinations of NaCl and KCl salt viz., NaCl only, NaCl:KCl, 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3 (w/w); all used at of 46 g/kg curd and plasticised in 4% brine containing the above salt mixtures. Texture profile, microstructure, and percentages of soluble Ca, K, Na, and P were determined. There were no significant differences in hardness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and gumminess among the experimental LMMC batches. Environmental scanning electron microscopy images showed compact and homogeneous structure of LMMC at day 27 of storage; however, no significant difference was observed among the experimental LMMC batches. Hardness increased significantly in all experimental LMMC during storage. LMMC salted with NaCl/KCl mixtures had almost similar sensory properties compared with the control. There was no significant difference in creaminess, bitterness, saltiness, sour-acid, and vinegary taste among the experimental LMMC at the same storage period.

Coconut milk is widely used in Malaysia as one of the essential ingredients in preparing traditional baked cake or ‘kuih bakar’. Increased demand for coconut milk affects its availability and cost. Thus, it is important to study a possible alternative ingredient to ensure the continuity of this traditional dessert. This project aimed to determine the physicochemical and sensory properties of ‘kuih bakar’ produced with coconut milk and soy milk. In the present study, ‘kuih bakar’ was prepared with fresh coconut milk (FCM) (positive control), fresh soy milk (FSM), commercial coconut milk (CCM), commercial soy milk (CSM), and without milk (negative control). Proximate analysis showed that substitution of coconut milk with soy milk reduced the fat and increased the protein content of ‘kuih bakar’ significantly (p < 0.05). However, the substitution of coconut milk did not show a significant effect (p > 0.05) on the colour properties and water activity of the sample. There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in scores during sensory evaluation between the samples but the ‘kuih bakar’ produced with FSM showed no significant difference (p < 0.05) as compared to FCM and CCM. This study demonstrated that physicochemical and sensory attributes of traditional ‘kuih bakar’ can be maintained by using FSM as a substitution of the traditional coconut milk used in producing ‘kuih bakar’.
