Convenience foods are the now a big trend in the food business. The Indian ready to eat (RTE), ready to cook (RTC) and ready to serve (RTS) food segments have emerged from its early days of being a fringe alternative to home cooked meals or eating out. The underutilised little millet like other nutricereals is nutritionally superior to regularly consumed cereals. Malting of little millet enhances the digestibility, reduces the antinutritional components and can provide appropriate food-based strategy to derive nutrients maximally. Hence, a ready to reconstitute (RTR) smoothie mix was developed with a malted little millet that promotes the incorporation of nourishing drinks in daily diet. The suitability of mix to blend with fruit pulps viz. banana, papaya and pineapple in 1:1 and 1:2 ratio was assessed for its sensory parameters. The results revealed that the best scores for sensory attributes were for 1:1 blend except for appearance. Further, the overall acceptability scores of banana, papaya and pineapple smoothies on a hedonic scale of 9.0 were 8.37±0.09, 8.17±0.07 and 8.27±0.08 respectively indicating that the evaluated pulpy fruits were suitable for preparation of RTR smoothies.

Demographic Effects

Abstract Beef genotypes and diets can improve the eating quality and consistency of beef. A 2-yr study was conducted to evaluate the effects of beef genotypes and diet on consumer acceptability of beef. Steaks were from Red Angus (RA) and RA x Akaushi (AK) crossbreed, fed one of two finishing systems: grazing (GRASS) and feedlot (GRAIN). Consumers (n = 105 in each year) evaluated cooked steaks for flavor, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability using a 9-point hedonic scale. Demographical information was collected and used as covariates in the statistical model. There was no difference in sensory attributes (P > 0.05) between the genotypes, except that steaks from AK tended to be juicier than RA (P = 0.06). Sensory attributes were scored better in GRAIN than GRASS beef (P < 0.01) for all variables. There was a genotype by system interaction for flavor (P = 0.02), where beef from RA had a lower flavor rating in GRASS than in GRAIN, and no difference was observed for AK. Demographic effects showed that gender and beef consumption location had significant effects on flavor. Flavor scores were higher for females than males (6.1 vs 5.7, P = 0.02), and higher from consumers who eat beef in restaurants than consumers who do not eat beef in restaurants (6.6 vs 5.3, P < 0.01). Juiciness scores were impacted by the frequency of beef consumption. Panelists who eat beef once every 2–3 weeks rated the steaks juicier than those who eat beef once every 2–3 months (6.5 vs 4.3, P = 0.04), and consumers who eat grass-fed beef twice a year rated the steaks worse than those who eat it less than once a year (P = 0.02). Our results suggest that the beef finishing system had a marked impact on consumer acceptability, and AK might produce meat juicier than RA. Some demographic factors may influence consumer perceptions of beef.

Grape juices are blended in order to balance the organoleptic characteristics of juice, as well as to reduce off-season costs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptance of consumers, through sensory analysis, of ‘Bordô’, ‘Niagara Rosada’, ‘BRS Nubia’ and ‘Isabel’ grape juices and their blends. The experiment was conducted during two periods. In the first, the grape juices analyzed were: ‘Niagara Rosada’ 100%, ‘Bordô’ 100%, ‘Isabel’ 100%, ‘Isabel’ 90% + ‘Bordô’ 10% and ‘Isabel’ 80% + ‘Bordô’ 20%. In the second, the following juices were evaluated: ‘Bordô’ 100%, ‘Niagara Rosada’ 100%, ‘Bordô’ 75% + ‘Niagara Rosada’ 25%, ‘Bordô’ 50% + ‘Niagara Rosada’ 50%, ‘Bordô’ 25% + ‘Niagara Rosada’ 75% and ‘BRS Nubia’ 100%. The juices were obtained by the ‘Welch’ process by steam entrainment. For the sensory evaluation, six tasters evaluated the following attributes in each period: color, aroma, flavor, body and overall acceptability, using a 7-point hedonic scale. The ‘Niagara Rosada’ juice 100% presents low acceptance, while the ‘Bordô’ and ‘Niagara Rosada’ juices up to 1:1 (v:v) show high acceptance, as well as ‘Bordô’ and ‘Isabel’ blends, confirming the importance of ‘Bordô’ juice for grape juice blends. The ‘Nubia’ juice 100% may be an alternative for grape juice blends due to its intense color.

ABSTRACT New microbial performance standards for chicken parts necessitate postchill antimicrobial interventions to make poultry parts safer for consumers. This research was conducted to determine the effectiveness of antimicrobials (0.003% chlorine; 0.07% acidified sodium chlorite [ASC], 0.07 or 0.1% peracetic acid [PAA], and 0.35 or 0.60% cetylpyridinium chloride [CPC]) when used in a postchill decontamination tank to reduce Salmonella and Campylobacter on broiler chicken parts (including breasts, thighs, wings, and drumsticks) and to determine the sensory attributes of the treated samples. Samples (n = 90, 9 treatments × 5 samples × 2 replications) were inoculated with Salmonella Typhimurium (108 CFU/mL) and Campylobacter jejuni (108 CFU/mL). After a 30-min attachment time, chicken parts were rinsed with various antimicrobials in a decontamination tank for 23 s. Salmonella and Campylobacter reduction was determined by sampling parts after the treatments were applied. Sensory evaluation of skin-on (drumettes) and skin-off (breast meat) parts were conducted by untrained panelists by using an 8-point hedonic scale. CPC (0.35 or 0.60%), provided a reduction of 2.5 or 3.5 log CFU/mL on Salmonella and a reduction of 4 or 5 log CFU/mL on Campylobacter, respectively. Both concentrations of PAA (0.07 or 0.1%) provided a 1.5-log reduction on Salmonella and Campylobacter. Chlorine at 0.003% and ASC at 0.07% were the least effective antimicrobials, providing <1-log reduction for both pathogens, which did not differ from the reduction provided by a water rinse alone. Sensory attributes were unaffected in drumettes, and skinless breast fillets received the most acceptable scores (P ≤ 0.05) for texture, juiciness, and overall acceptability when treated with 0.07% PAA and 0.35% CPC. Results from this study indicated that using PAA and CPC in a postchill decontamination tank are effective treatments for reducing Salmonella and Campylobacter on chicken parts, with minimal effects on product quality.

Keropok lekor a fish-based sausage is a popular traditional food item in Terengganu state, Malaysia. This study aimed to develop a new flavor and taste of keropok lekor. Common spices such as cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cardamom, bay leaf, nutmeg, clove, onion, ginger, garlic were used to develop a new flavor of keropok lekor. A total of 5 samples, including two original and three developed keropok lekor samples were prepared. This study also evaluated the proximate composition of two raw samples (Original and developed). The results of the proximate analysis showed a significant difference (p<0.05) in all parameters except the fiber content. Hardness, springiness, and chewiness of the samples were measured by using TA-XTplus texture analyzer. There was a significant difference in the hardness level between original and developed sample. Finally, sensory evaluation according to six attributes such as color, odors, texture, flavor, taste and overall acceptability was done by 39 panelists. A 7-point hedonic scale ranging from “dislike very much” to “like very much” was employed in sensory testing. There was a significant difference (p<0.05) in all the sensory parameters evaluated. The results showed that most of the respondents preferred the developed samples over the original samples. Developed fried keropok lekor with bread crumb was the most acceptable one.

Background: Black rice also known as purple rice which is rich in anthocyanin, antioxidants, fiber, minerals etc. are abundantly found in Manipur. Black rice is an underutilized crop in Manipur and most parts of North East India although it regarded as the super food. The objective of the present study is to develop Idli by blending the aromatic black rice (Poireiton), white rice (IR20) and black gram (Urad Dal). Methods: The amount of black rice and IR20 are varied (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) keeping the black gram level at 33% of the total weight. The best combination of formulated Idli is selected by analyzing the variations in fermentation volume, pH, colour values, sensory parameters and its overall acceptability. Sensory parameters of the developed idli are conducted by 9-point hedonic scale by 10 semi trained panel. Result: The Idli with black rice level of 10% and 12 hrs fermentation time has the highest overall acceptability in sensory evaluation. The best treatment of idli has a pH of 5.28, increased in the volume batter as 140% and color values as L*, a* and b* as 58.42, 5.92 and 10.51 respectively.

The study was carried out to develop retail cuts, evaluate the effect of the method of pelage (removal/scalding) on the yield and organoleptic quality of smoked grasscutter (Tryonomys swinderianus). Sixteen grass cutters were purchased from Abico bush meat market in Benin City, Nigeria. The pelages were removed by water and fire scalding. Some were brined in 15% salt solution for 3 hrs while others were not. The carcasses were cut into seven retail cuts. All samples were smoke-dried for 6 hrs. Sensory evaluation was done by a 12-man panelusing a 5-point hedonic scale. The results showed that there were significant differences (P<0.05) in the yield of fresh salted and non-salted grass cutter samples. There was also significant difference (P<0.05) in the smoked yield of salted smoked grasscutter with WSS giving the highest yield of 1.03 kg. The method of pelage removal did not have any significant effect (P>0.05) but there was significant effects in the smoked yields. Sensory evaluation showed significant differences (P<0.05) in the colour, tenderness, juiciness, flavor and overall acceptability. Salted samples had the highest scores all organoleptic properties. It was recommended that further studies be carried out to evaluate the effects of salting and smoking on economic and sensory parameters of other sources of bush meat in Nigeria.

Abstract The effects of beef genetics and finishing system on color and sensory attributes of longissimus dorsi steaks were evaluated. Steaks were from Red Angus (RA, n = 30) and RA x Akaushi (AK, n = 30) fed with a mixed-species pasture forage (GRASS) or a total mixed feedlot ration (GRAIN). Animals were slaughtered at 18 (GRAIN) and 26 (GRASS) mo. Rib sections (11th and 13th) were collected 48 h postmortem from the left side of each carcass, cut into two 2.54 cm-thick steaks, vacuum packaged, and aged 14 d. One steak was frozen until water holding capacity and Warner Bratzler shear force (WBSF) analysis. The other fresh steak was evaluated for instrumental color and cooked for consumer panelists (n = 105) to evaluate flavor, texture, juiciness, and overall acceptability using a 9-point hedonic scale (1 = dislike extremely and 9 = like extremely). There was no difference between beef genetics. GRASS had higher chroma (more color saturation) and a* values (redder) compared to GRAIN treatment. There was genetics x diet interaction for hue angle and L* values, where RA had greater hue angle than AK in GRAIN (P = 0.01) and AK had greater L* (lighter, P &lt; 0.01) than RA in GRASS. The GRASS-finishing reduced beef steaks thawing (-20 %) and cooking (-12.8 %) loss compared to GRAIN-finishing (P &lt; 0.05). There were no differences (P &gt; 0.05) in WBSF between finishing systems. Steaks from GRAIN received the greatest ratings (P &lt; 0.01) for flavor, texture, juiciness, and overall acceptability compared to GRASS. Results indicate that the color attributes were influenced by finishing system. Furthermore, beef finishing system had a marked impact on steaks’ sensory attributes and consumer acceptability. The favorable results for texture and juiciness in GRAIN, which likely impacted overall acceptability, may be related to high marbling.

A study on organoleptic evaluation for accessing sensory attributes of lycopene containing tomato purees & its overall acceptance was conducted at Food Science Analysis Laboratory, School of Home Science, B.B.A.U, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India, during July 2020 to May 2021. Different treatments under the investigation were prepared using dried tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum), tomato pulp and water to find out most appropriate treatment having significantly higher sensory attributes and overall acceptability. Five different types of treatments/purees viz. Dried tomato powder without food additives (T1), Mixture of tomato powder and water (ratio 1:10) without heating (T2), Mixture of tomato powder and water (ratio 1:10) heating at 60-70 ᴼC for 5 minutes (T3), Fresh tomato pulp (T4) &  Tomato pulp cooked at 60-70 ᴼC for 35 minutes (T5) were used in the investigation. The effect of these treatments was distinguished as reflected on sensory characters like appearance, aroma, texture & overall acceptance. The highest overall acceptance of 8.20±0.7 on hedonic scale was obtained from tomato pulp cooked at 60-70 ᴼC for 35 minutes (T5) followed by dried tomato powder without food additives (T1) ie. 7.90±1.0. These results appeared highly promising depending on the appearance, aroma & texture.

Determining minimum levels of fat and sucrose needed for the sensory acceptance of sponge cake while increasing the nutritional quality was the main objective of this study. Sponge cakes with 0, 25, 50 and 75% sucrose replacement (SR) using a combination of inulin and Rebaudioside A (Reb A) were prepared. Sensory acceptance testing (SAT) was carried out on samples. Following experimental results, four more samples were prepared where fat was replaced sequentially (0, 25, 50 and 75%) in sucrose-replaced sponge cakes using pureed butter beans (Pbb) as a replacer. Fat-replaced samples were investigated using sensory (hedonic and intensity) and physicochemical analysis. Texture liking and overall acceptability (OA) were the only hedonic sensory parameters significantly affected after a 50% SR in sponge cake (p < 0.05). A 25% SR had no significant impact on any hedonic sensory properties and samples were just as accepted as the control sucrose sample. A 30% SR was chosen for further experiments. After a 50% fat replacement (FR), no significant differences were found between 30% sucrose-replaced sponge cake samples in relation to all sensory (hedonic and intensity) parameters investigated. Flavour and aroma intensity attributes such as buttery and sweet and, subsequently, liking and OA of samples were negatively affected after a 75% FR (p < 0.05). Instrumental texture properties (hardness and chewiness (N)) did not discriminate between samples with increasing levels of FR using Pbb. Moisture content increased significantly with FR (p < 0.05). A simultaneous reduction in fat (42%) and sucrose was achieved (28%) in sponge cake samples without negatively affecting OA. Optimised samples contained significantly more dietary fibre (p < 0.05).

Coconut Meat

A three-level Box-Behnken design of response surface methodology was employed to optimize the formulation of bukayo or coconut toffee based on overall acceptability sensory attribute. The independent variables were different levels of young coconut meat (250 – 500 g), sinakob (250 – 500 g), and coconut juice (250 – 500 g) with fifteen different runs of three similar center points. The analysis of variance showed that quadratically, coconut juice and sinakob showed significantly higher effect (p<0.05) on the overall acceptability of bukayo whereas the “Lack of Fit” was non-significant relative to the pure error. For optimization, the goal was to maximize the overall acceptability response. The optimum formulation conditions of 430 g young coconut meat, 400 g sinakob, and 340 g coconut juice yielded an experimental overall acceptability score of 8.04 which is close to the predicted score of 7.11 with composite desirability of 0.87 on a nine-point hedonic scale. The regression model equation for overall acceptability could predict response yield until at least 84.65% of accuracy. Box-Behnken design of RSM performed well in the optimization of the bukayo formulation with a very high degree of overall acceptability. The strong and positive correlations enable the application of colorimetry as an indication of the overall acceptability and sensory color of the bukayo product.
