EFFECT OF THE PROCESSING PARAMETERS ON THE PROXIMATE COMPOSITION OF AKARA OGBOMOSO
Keywords:
beans, pepper, salt, ginger, cooking temperatureAbstract
The effect of processing parameters on the proximate composition of Akara Ogbomoso was studied. Beans, ginger, pepper, salt and water were the main ingredient used for the preparation of Akara Ogbomoso. The regression coefficients (R2) value for the response equations which is an indication that the processing variables were adequately fitted to the regression equation and could predict the proximate values of the Akara Ogbomoso were found to be 0.9922, 0.9488, 0.9670, 0.9932, 0.9494 and 0.9989 for crude protein, crude fibre, crude fat, moisture content, ash content and carbohydrate respectively. The optimum process condition at desirability index of 0.932 were X1 (0.56), X2 (0.02), X3 (0.01), X4 (29.36) and X5 (171oC). Processing variables had a significant (p<0.05) effect on the proximate composition of Akara Ogbomoso. The proximate composition were mostly affected by cooking temperature
