Abstract

The food industry has increased so the need for food packaging has also increased. One of the packaging that is often used is Styrofoam, where Styrofoam contains chemical substances namely styrene, butyl hydroxytoluene, and polytyrene which can migrate to food and is harmful to humans because it is carcinogenic. One of the alternatives to styrofoam is bio-foam. Biofoam is an alternative packaging to replace styrofoam because it is made from natural raw materials, namely a mixture of starch, fibers, and synthetic polymers that are easily biodegradable. The natural ingredients used in the study were tapioca flour as a source of starch and yellow soybean hull flour as a source of fiber. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the ratio of proportions in opioids and yellow soybean hulls with the addition of glycerol on the characteristics of the bio-foam produced. This study uses a completely random design method with 2 factors. Factor I is the ratio of tapioca flour and yellow soybean hull flour, which is 70:30, 50:50, and 30:70. Factor II is the addition of glycerol by 5%, 10%, and 15%. The observation data was analyzed using ANOVA, if there was a real interaction or influence on the two treatments, then a DMRT test was carried out with a confidence level of 5%. The best treatment results were obtained through the Zeleny method, namely the treatment of the proportion of tapioca flour as a basic ingredient: yellow soybean hulls flour (30:70) and the addition of glycerol of 15% with the results of the analysis of moisture content of 15.76%, starch content of 17.53%, density of 1.13 gr/cm3, water absorption of 14.67%, biodegradability of 8.14% (±8 weeks) and tensile strength of 11.03Mpa

Abstract

White bread is a food product generally derived from wheat flour that is consumed by the majority of people around the world. Innovations continue to be made to increase the nutritional value of bread. The use of pedada fruit (Sonneratia caseolaris) as a local food rich in fiber is an alternative to mixing with wheat flour. This study was conducted to determine the physical and organoleptic properties of wheat flour white bread with pedada flour. Organoleptic quality assessment was conducted with the participation of 25 panelists. Sensory attributes that are referenced by panelists include color, aroma, taste, texture, and overall. Data analysis used a T-test to determine the real difference between two treatments with a significant level (<0.05) including development volume, number of pores, texture, and organoleptic test. White Bread with a proportion of 80% wheat flour and 20% pedada produced a loaf volume (138.04%), porosity (11,722/cm2), and texture with texture analyzer (5,892 gf). The organoleptic test showed that the bread with 80% wheat flour and 20% pedada flour received positive ratings in terms of color and aroma, but received low ratings in terms of texture and taste.

Abstract

Sensory evaluation is a crucial activity in food product development and affects consumer preference, particularly for flake products. Flakes are foods in the form of thin or flaky pieces, generally made from cereal grains. The raw materials used in this study are purple sweet potato flour, which is high in starch (74.57%), and edamame flour, which is high in protein (36.15%). Different formulations will affect the formation of sensory attributes and characteristics of flake products. The sensory evaluation method used in this study is the Just About Right (JAR) method, aimed at analyzing the sensory attributes of flake samples that influence overall liking assessment (p-value < 0.05; panelist response percentage > 20%; and high mean drops), in order to determine the most optimal product formulation. Sensory evaluation of the product was conducted by testing 13 attributes using JAR and hedonic scales (overall liking). The data obtained were processed using XLSTAT 2024 software. Based on the analysis results, the F2 flake product formulation (80% Purple Sweet Potato Flour: 20% Edamame Flour) is the most optimal product formulation, where the attributes that need optimization are taste (Earthy – Sweet, p-value = 0.027) and aftertaste (Earthy, p-value = 0.0003).

Abstract

Dry noodles are one of the foods made from wheat flour. The availability of wheat in Indonesia does not match consumer demand, necessitating the use of alternative ingredients such as arrowroot flour and mung bean flour. The use of stabilizers like CMC, STPP, and Xanthan Gum is needed to improve the characteristics of dry noodles. This research aims to determine the effect of the proportion of arrowroot flour and mung bean flour with different types of stabilizers on the physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics of dry noodles. The experimental design used was a factorial CRD with two factors. Factor I was the proportion of arrowroot flour and mung bean flour and Factor II was the addition of different types of stabilizers. Data were analyzed using 5% ANOVA and 5% DMRT. There was a significant interaction (p≤0.05) on the moisture content, ash, protein, fat, starch, rehydration capacity, cooking loss, elasticity, and organoleptic characteristics of aroma, texture, and overall appearance. There were no significant differences in the organoleptic characteristics of color and taste. The best treatment was the proportion of arrowroot flour and mung bean flour (60:40) with the addition of CMC stabilizer, which resulted in dry noodles with the following characteristics: moisture 11.392%, ash 1.919%, protein 11.592%, fat 1.378%, starch 54.720%, rehydration capacity 110.266%, cooking loss 6.398%, elasticity 0.314 N, aroma 4.200, color 4.040, taste 3.800, texture 4.200, and overall appearance 4.160.

Abstract

Snack bars are practical rod-shaped food products generally made from a mixture of nutritious ingredients and consumed as a source of energy and nutrients. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal treatment combination of flaxseed flour and brown rice flour, supplemented with honey, to produce snack bars with the most beneficial nutritional properties. This study employed a Completely Randomised Design (CRD) with a factorial pattern, involving two factors and three replications. Factor I: flaxseed flour: brown rice flour (20%: 80%; 25%: 35%; 30%: 70%) and factor II: the addition of honey (40%; 45%; 50%). The Data were analysed using ANOVA and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) to determine if there were significant differences at a 5% level, while the organoleptic data were analysed using the Friedman Test at a 5% level. Treatment of flaxseed flour proportions : brown rice flour (30%; 70%) and the addition of honey (40%) is the best treatment that produces a snack bar with the characteristics of water content 12.38%, ash content 2.35%, protein content 11.78%, fat content 8.78%, crude fiber content 5.95%, carbohydrate content 64.57%, total calories 386 (kcal/100 grams), hardness texture 6.388 (N), chewiness texture 189.891, and taste organoleptic test 4.80 (neutral), color 5.00 (like), aroma 4.90 (neutral), texture 4.73 (neutral).
