<![CDATA[Addition moringa leaves to meatball will increase the nutrition of meatballs. This study aimed to determine the best treatment of adding Moringa leaves on the chemical, physical and organoleptic giant sea catfish balls. This study used a completely randomized design with the following treatments; I0 = without addition Moringa Leaves, I1= the addition 10% fresh moringa leaves, I2= the addition 10% steamed moringa leaves, I3= the addition 5% fresh moringa leaves, and I4=addition 5% steamed moringa leaves. The parameters measured in this study were proximate, Mg, Ca, organoleptic, texture profile, values of L, a, and b of giant sea catfish balls. The best treatment was selected based on the de Garmo method of effectiveness test. The results showed that the addition of Moringa leaves to fishballs could increase ash, Mg and Ca. Fishballs with the addition of 10% Moringa leaves had higher Mg and Ca values (p<0.05) than fish balls with the addition of 5% Moringa leaves. Fish meatballs with the addition of fresh Moringa leaves had higher Mg and Ca values (p<0.05) than fish balls with the addition of steamed Moringa leaves. The addition of Moringa leaves can increase the hardness of the fish balls. Fish balls added with fresh Moringa leaves have a higher brightness value than those that are steamed first. The addition of 5% steamed moringa leaves resulted in the best overall organoleptic acceptance than other treatments. Based on the de Garmo method of effectiveness test, the best treatment was fish balls with 10% steamed Moringa leaves.Keywords: fish meatballs, giant sea catfish, moringa leavesABSTRAKPenambahan daun kelor pada bakso dapat meningkatkan nilai gizi bakso. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perlakuan terbaik pada penambahan daun kelor terhadap sifat kimia, sifat fisik dan organoleptik bakso ikan manyung. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan perlakuan penelitian sebagai berikut; I0= tanpa penambahan daun kelor, I1= penambahan 10% daun kelor segar, I2= penambahan 10% daun kelor kukus, I3 = penambahan 5% daun kelor segar, dan I4 = penambahan 5% daun kelor kukus. Parameter yang diukur dalam penelitian ini adalah proksimat, Mg, Ca, organoleptik, profil tekstur, nilai L, a dan b bakso manyung. Perlakukan terbaik dipilih berdasarkan uji efektivitas metode de Garmo. Hasil menunjukan bahwa penambahan daun kelor pada bakso dapat meningkatkan kadar abu, Mg dan Ca. Bakso ikan dengan penambahan daun kelor 10% memiliki nilai Mg dan Ca yang lebih tinggi (p<0,05) dibandingkan bakso ikan dengan penambahan daun kelor 5%. Bakso ikan dengan penambahan daun kelor segar memiliki nilai Mg dan Ca lebih tinggi (p<0,05) dibandingkan bakso ikan dengan penambahan daun kelor kukus. Penambahan daun kelor dapat meningkatkan hardness bakso ikan. Bakso ikan yang ditambah dengan daun kelor segar memiliki nilai kecerahan warna lebih tinggi dibandingkan yang dikukus terlebih dahulu. Penambahan 5% daun kelor kukus menghasilkan nilai keseluruhan organoleptik terbaik dibandingkan perlakuan lainnya. Berdasarkan uji efektivitas metode de Garmo perlakuan terbaik adalah bakso ikan dengan penambahan 10% daun kelor kukus.Kata kunci: bakso ikan, daun kelor, ikan manyung]]>
