Abstract
Gooseberry (Emblica officinalis L) fruits of cultivars, 'Chakaiya', 'Krishna', and 'NA-7' were evaluated for the preparation of dehydrated powder. 'Chakaiya' showed the highest ascorbic acid content (357 mg /100 g) followed by 'Krishna' (298 mg/100 g). The tannin content ranged from 2.4% ('Chakaiya') to 1 % ('NA-7'). Heat treatment of berries prior to dehydration resulted in browning and was not recommended as a pretreatment. The dehydration ratio of gooseberry powder varied from 4.49:1 in cv 'Chakaiya' to 4.58:1 in cv 'Krishna'. The equilibrium relative humidity of gooseberry powder from cv 'Chakaiya' was 30.0% with a moisture content of 3.3%. The quality characteristics of the dehydrated gooseberry powder stored at room temperature (25±2°C) in metallized polyester pouches for 6 months revealed that 'Chakaiya' was the most suitable among the 3 cvs of gooseberry followed by-'Krishna'. Gooseberry powder prepared from 'Chakaiya' had superior quality characteristics with respect to colour, flavour and ascorbic acid retention during 6 months storage at 25±2°C.
