<![CDATA[Cereal is a processed food made from cereal grain flour and processed and formed into flakes, pieces, strips through an extrusion process. Generally, cereals are made from wheat imported from outside Indonesia, so alternative food ingredients are needed. Sorghum flour can be used as a substitute for wheat. In making cereals, tolo bean flour is added as a source of protein. This study aims to determine the effect of the ratio of sorghum flour and tolo bean flour on the quality characteristics of "sokato" cereal. The type of research used is experimental research, using a Randomized Block Design (RAK) with 5 treatments and 3 replications. Data analysis used to determine the effect of differences in ratios using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that differences in the ratio of sorghum flour and pigeon pea flour had a significant effect on organoleptic quality including color, aroma, overall acceptance, texture quality, taste quality, ash content, and cereal crude fiber. The best treatment of this study was P5 with 30% sorghum flour and 70% tolo bean flour with the characteristics of crunchy texture, slightly nutty, overall acceptance liked, ash content 1.66%, water content 4.7%, protein 8.01%, fat 13.75%, carbohydrate 71.87%, crude fiber 1.16%. In further research can make sokato cereal with modifications that will increase nutritional value and contain water content of less than 3% in accordance with SNI 01-4270-1996.]]>
