Abstract

Chillies, coriander, fenugreek, black pepper, mustard, cumin, nutmeg, cinnamon, asafoetida and turmeric were mildy roasted, blended in proportions given, and powdered. A ready mix was prepared using the spice blend, pre-cooked dhal, salt and tamarind, and formed into bars using 100 g ready mix and 30 g melted hydrogenated fat. The solidified bars (2 in x 1 in x in) were packed in Al foil and stored at room temp., 37 degree C and 5 degree C. BHA was added to one batch. Samples were periodically analysed for moisture, ether extractives, free fatty acid, peroxide value, and organoleptic quality. Bars treated with BHA were acceptable for 6 months compared with 4 months for controls. Samples with BHA stored at 5 degree C were acceptable for 12 months. Fall in acceptability was mainly due to loss of aroma, with loss of volatiles from ether extractives in 12 months being 72.8, 51.9 and 66.7% at 37 degree C, 5 degree C and 27-28 degree C respectively.
