<![CDATA[High milkfish production results in high processing waste, such as fish offal which is often simply disposed of without optimal utilization. This study aims to utilize milkfish offal as a raw material for making shrimp paste with variations in salt concentration. The study used the Complete Random Design (RAL) method with three different salt treatments, namely 0% as a control, 15% and 20%. The parameters tested included proximate analysis (water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats and ash) as well as sensory tests (appearance, aroma, taste and texture). The results of the proximate test showed 0% salt concentration with a water content value of 15.37%, carbohydrate content of 34.32%, protein content of 32.21%, fat content of 15.91%, ash content of 2.18%. Salt concentration is 15% with a water content value of 14.57%, carbohydrate content of 32.54%, protein content of 26.92%, fat content of 13.46%, ash content of 12.52%. Salt concentration 20% with a water content value of 14.71%, carbohydrate content 32.34%, protein content 24.52%, fat content 13.04%, ash content 15.39%. The results of the sensory test showed 0% salt concentration with a value of 7.8, smell 7.67, taste 7.13, texture 7.53. Salt concentration 15% with appearance value of 7.93, smell 8.33, taste 8, texture 7.4. Salt concentration 20% with appearance value 7.6, smell 7.73, taste 7.4, texture 7.07. In conclusion, the water, protein and sensory content have met the requirements of SNI (water max 35%, protein min 15% and sensory min 7), the results of ANOVA statistical analysis, show that the variation in salt concentration has a real effect on the proximate and has no real effect on the sensory value.]]>
