Abstract

The effect of combination of ingredients namely raisin paste (R), citric acid (C) and vinegar (V), collectively referred as RCV, on the rheological, physico-sensory, microbiological and storage characteristics of south Indian parotta was studied. Addition of RCV decreased farinograph water absorption, stability; extensograph resistance to extension, extensibility; increased amylograph pasting temperature, peak viscosity, cold paste viscosity, set back and decreased break down values; pH, aw of baked parotta and increased the overall quality score of parotta. Sensory evaluation during ambient storage (27 ± 2 °C) showed that the parottas were acceptable up to 9th day. The results showed the possibility of producing ready to eat, microbiologically stable parotta with 9 days shelf life.
