Abstract

A study was made of the application of the basic techniques used in conventional miso fermentation of soybeans in Japan to the preparation of pre-digested protein-rich foods from Indian oilseed meals and pulses. A combination of peanut flour (defatted) and Bengal gram in the ratio of 2:1 or 13:7 resulted in a good fermented miso-like product, a flow sheet for the process is given. Salt concn. necessary could be effectively reduced from the usual 7-10% down to 2% by the addition of 1% alcoholic extracts of pepper and chillies; this shortened the fermentation period and yielded a sweetish miso-like product. It was found that the rice used in the preparation of rice-koji could be replaced by corn or jowar with only a slight modification of the process. The final product can be successfully dried in a vacuum shelf drier.
