Abstract

A ready-to-serve beverage, popularly known as 'kanji' was prepared by natural as well as controlled fermentation (Lactobacillus plantarum) of black carrots (Daucus carota L.) mixed with requisite quantities of salt, crushed mustard and red chilli powder. The changes in pH and acidity were monitored during the course of fermentation. The proximate composition of the carrots was also determined. Bottled RTS beverage was evaluated for its sensory quality and the beverage prepared by natural fermentation was rated as the best during storage for 6 months at room temp.
