Abstract

Effect of addition of xanthan to instant idli batter was studied, with particular reference to texture of the prepared batter. 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 or 0.3% xanthan was added to the batter mix in each of the following ways: prior to addition of water; by dispersion in 50% of the water required to prepare the batter; or by dispersion in the total amount of water required to prepare the batter. Effects of xanthan on texture of idli depended upon concn. and addition method. The desired texture of idli was obtained when approx. 0.1% preswollen xanthan was added to the batter mix.
