Abstract

Pinni - an Indian traditional sweet, prepared by roasting urd dhal (Phaseolus mungo L) peetht (paste) and khoa (milk solids), followed by adding sugar syrup and moulding into round to elliptical shape, could be stored for 10 days in high density polyethylene (HDPE) bags of 220 gauge. Addition of 0.05 or 0.10% sorbic acid or 0.05% potassium sorbate in pinni helped to enhance the shelf-life to 30 days under ambient conditions, without any discernible change in the sensory quality. Free fatty acid content and peroxide value of the samples during storage remained within tolerable limits.
