    UTILIZATION OF KHAMANG RICE (Oryza sativa) FOR THE PREPARATION OF KHEER.
    (Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-06-30) CHAVHAN, SANTOSH NARAYAN.; Atkare, Dr. V. G.
    The research work entitled “Utilization of khamang rice (Oryza sativa) for the preparation of kheer” was carried out during the year 2017-18. Milk was standardized to 4 per cent fat and the kheer prepared with addition of khamang rice at 1.5% (T1), 2% (T2), 2.5% (T3) and 3% (T4) per cent by weight of milk. The results of four treatments with five replications were statistically analyzed by using completely randomized design (CRD). The data obtained after chemical analysis of fat, total solids, protein, ash, moisture and evaluation of sensory characteristics like colour and appearance, body and texture, flavour and overall acceptability were subjected to statistical analysis. Total solids, protein, ash percentage of kheer were increased with increase in the level of khamang rice and fat and moisture percentage was decreased with increase in the level of khamang rice. The sensory evaluation for (overall acceptability) carried out by the judges, showed that kheer prepared by adding with 3 part khamang rice (T4) had secured the highest score (97.40) and ranked as acceptable treatment. This kheer contained 5.31 per cent fat, 39.56 per cent total solids, 3.78 per cent protein, 1.61 per cent ash and 60.44 per cent moisture. The cost of production of kheer was increase with the increase in the level of khamang rice. The cost of production was higher of treatment T4 with addition of 3 part khamang rice (Rs.86.00 per kg) while, the kheer prepared by adding 3 part khamang rice (T4 treatment) costing (Rs. 86.00 per kg) which was superiorly accepted by the panel of judges. Hence, it is concluded that superior quality kheer can be prepared by addition of 3 per cent of khamang rice.

    UTILIZATION OF BLACK CARROT (Daucus carota spp. sativus) JUICE FOR PREPARATION OF FLAVOURED MILK.
    (Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-06-30) TAYDE, BHUSHAN MADHUKAR.; Zinjarde, Dr. R. M.
    The present investigation entitled “Utilization of black carrot (Daucus carota spp sativus) juice for preparation of flavoured milk” was undertaken during 2017-2018. Flavoured milk was prepared using milk standardized to 3 per cent fat with constant level of sugar (8 per cent), cardamom (0.1%) and different levels of black carrot juice viz,100:0(T1), 98:2(T2), 96:4 (T3) and 94:6 (T4) with four treatment and five replication. The product was analyzed for chemical composition as well as for sensory attributes in completely randomized design. The cost of production was also calculated by considering the retail market prices of different ingredients used. The results showed that fat, total solids and protein were significantly decreased with the increase in level of black carrot juice inflavoured milk. The fat, total solids and protein content were decreased range from 3 to 2.83 per cent, 18.84 to 18.75 per cent and 3.39 to 3.20 per cent respectively. On the other hand, the acidity, SNF and ash percentage were significantly increased with the increase in the levels of black carrot juice. Acidity, SNF and ash increased range from 0.14 to 0.21 per cent, 15.84 to 15.92 per cent and 0.74 to 0.84 per cent respectively. The significantly highest scores for colour and general appearance (27.03 out of 30), taste (47.10 out of 50), acceptability (18.37 out of 20) and overall acceptability (92.05 out of 100) were obtained in flavoured milk containing 6 per cent of black carrot juice. The cost of flavoured milk increased with the increase in the levels of black carrot juice. It is inferred from the above results that acceptable quality flavoured milk can be produced by blending black carrot juice to the extent of 6 per cent with cost of production of Rs. 69.64/lit.

    (Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2018-06-30) BHANDEKAR, KU. VIBHALI ANAND.; Atkare, Dr. V. G.
    In all 75 samples of paneer were examined during the course of investigation which were collected from different regions viz., central, east, west, north and south region. From each region, 15 samples were collected and analysed during three fortnight. So, 5 samples of each regions were analysed each fortnight. These paneer samples were collected by adopting stratified randomization technique. Central, east, west, north and south region paneer samples contained on an average moisture 54.49, 51.32, 52.56, 50.33 and 52.79 per cent, fat 22.81, 26.40, 24.13, 27.17 and 24.40 per cent, protein 19.41, 17.91 18.59, 16.73 and 17.89 per cent, ash 1.81, 2.02, 1.88, 1.87 and 1.84 per cent, total solids 45.51, 48.68, 47.44, 50.33 and 47.21 per cent, respectively. Adulteration of starch was more or less found in all regions paneer samples. Whereas, adulteration of coal tar dyes was found in central, west, north and south regions. However, east region paneer gives negative test for coal tar dyes and only two samples gives positive test for starch, hence east region paneer found superior over other in respect to starch and coal tar dyes adulteration.
