Abstract
Kulfi was prepared from milk standardized to 5.5 per cent fat. Oat bran was given various pre-treatments i.e. size reduction, roasting and cooking before incorporating in kulfi mix. It was varied from 1.5 to 5 per cent of kulfi mix. The total solids, fat, protein, ash and carbohydrate content increased significantly (p≤0.05) on increasing the level of oat bran. Kulfi samples with 1.5 per cent roasted, unground and cooked oat bran had the highest overall acceptability scores .Crude fibre, NDF, ADF, ADL, hemicellulose and cellulose content increased significantly (p≤0.05) on adding oat bran. Kulfi mix was inoculated with probiotic culture i.e. Lactobacillus casei at 2 to 4 per cent of the kulfi mix. Viscosity of the kulfi mix and pH decreased, while acidity and viable probiotic count increased significantly (p≤0.05) on increasing the level of Lactobacillus casei. Based on sensory acceptability, kulfi with 2 per cent Lactobacillus casei had the highest overall acceptability. Further, blending of kulfi mix with yoghurt was done at 10,20 and 30 per cent levels. On increasing the level of yoghurt blending, all proximate attributes decreased significantly (p≤0.05). Hardness decreased significantly (p≤0.05) on adding oat bran, yoghurt and L.casei. Probiotic kulfi with elaichi flavor had high consumer acceptability. Total solids, pH, first drip time and overall acceptability scores decreased, while acidity and melting rate increased significantly (p≤0.05)with storage at-18±1°C. Based on sensory evaluation, kulfi containing probiotic culture was found acceptable upto 28 days. Probiotic viability decreased on storage, but remained above 106cfu/ml.
