Abstract

Candied tomato dates are processed candies made from tomatoes that are dried until they are shaped like dates. Sensory profiles are needed to obtain candied date tomatoes with the most optimal betel lime solution concentration treatment and blanching time based on penalty analysis methods (JAR and hedonic scales). This study used the just about right method combined with the hedonic scale (overall liking) in the treatment of candied date tomatoes with a concentration of betel lime solution (2%, 3% and 4% (b/b)) and blanching time (5 minutes, 10 minutes and 15 minutes). There are 17 sensory attributes that will be tested through the assessment of the JAR scale and the hedonic scale (overall liking). The data obtained was then processed using XLSTAT 2024 software. Based on the results of the penalty analysis, it was shown that the most optimal candied date tomatoes were candied date tomatoes with a concentration treatment of 3% betel lime solution and a blanching time of 15 minutes where there were 14 insignificant test attributes or p-value≥0.05. Meanwhile, there are only 3 sensory attributes that need to be optimized or p-value˂0.05, namely juicy texture (p-value = 0.002), sweet taste (p-value = <0.0001) and fruity taste (p-value = 0.017).

Abstract

In this study, the manufacture of juwet fruit yoghurt was studied with different treatments of adding skim milk and lactic acid bacteria starter. Yogurt is a processed milk product made through bacterial fermentation. Yogurt is known as a good source of protein, calcium, and probiotics, which can support digestive health and the immune system. Juwet fruit has a high antioxidant and vitamin C content so that juwet fruit has interesting potential to be made into yoghurt. Skim milk is used to utilize high lactose and protein so that the growth of lactic acid bacteria can grow optimally. Lactic acid bacteria are used for preservation, providing texture, and adding flavor to yoghurt drinks. The purpose of this study was to determine the addition of skim milk and lactic acid bacteria starter on the physicochemical, microbiological, and organoleptic characteristics of juwet yoghurt. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) factorial pattern consisting of two factors. Factor 1 addition of skim milk (5%, 7%, 9%). Factor 2 addition of starter (5%, 7%, 9%). Each treatment was repeated three times. The data obtained were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). If there is a significant difference between treatments, it is continued with the Duncan test (DMRT) and organoleptic test using the Scoring test with 25 trained panelists. The treatment of adding 9% skim milk and 9% starter was the best treatment that produced juwet yoghurt with a protein content of 2.1% ± 0.036, total titratable acid 2.1% ± 0.1, total soluble solids 22.7ºBrix ± 1.53, total lactic acid bacteria 10.5 log CFU/ml ± 0.023, pH 3.7 ± 0.058, antioxidants 34.0% ± 0.117, viscosity 6.8% ± 0.058, Vitamin C 5.8 ± 0.3, and organoleptic tests of color 2.88 (rather like), taste 3.24 (rather like), aroma 2.68 (rather like), texture 3.76 (like).
