Abstract The study was carried out keeping in mind the current interest of value addition of foods because of increasing awareness among the consumers. Millets are one of the oldest foods known to human and possibly the cereal grain to be used for domestic purpose. Millets are highly nutritious, non-glutinous and not acid forming foods, they are smoothing and digest. The main of study conducted was to develop a value added multi millets namkeens.
A value added multi millets namkeens are rich in fibre, rich in various proportions of millets flour such as jowar, foxtail millet, Ragi, Bhajra and little millet. Two variations of multi millets namkeens developed with different millet and pulses flour combinations were attempted in this investigation. One variation is with jowar flour20%, bhajra flour20%, little millet flour 10%, ragi flour 10%, foxtail millet flour10%, besan flour. combination and another one is only with jowar flour10%, bhajra flour20%, little millet flour 10%, ragi flour 10%, foxtail millet flour10%, besan flour 10%, black gram dhal flour combination. The common ingredients used were 20%, carom seeds, spices and oil for frying.
The standardization trials indicated that variation-2 was accepted highly. The present study was carried out with 20 semi – trained panellists. Sensory qualities included appearance, colour, texture, odour, and overall acceptability. A 9- point hedonic rating scale was used. The variation-2 was found to have increased scores in taste, odour, texture and overall acceptability. The developed product contained Energy – 477kcal, Proteins – 12.61g Fat - 30g, Fibre – 2.03g, Carbohydrates – 49, Ash – 3.14%, Moisture -2.75%, for 100gms on dry basis of shelf life of 15 days. The product developed is a nutritionally enhanced product which is rich in antioxidants, gluten free, this product can be consumed by all age individuals and also by gluten intolerant individuals, which is quite safe as the product constitutes millets which are low in glycemic load.
Marketing was done on the standardised product value added multi millets Namkeens through packaging and labelling.
Keywords millets, value addition, good source of nutrients.
