Abstract
The present study was planned and conducted to arrive at a method of manufacture for Cham Cham on the basis of standardizing the process parameters such as fat of standardized milk, coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration. Cham Cham was made from milk standardized to 4 to 5 per cent fat, coagulation temperature of milk ranging from 80 to 90°C and cooking sugar syrup concentration varies from 55 to 65°Brix. The levels of these ingredients in the product were optimized by a Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD) of Response Surface Methodology (RSM), with three independent variables viz. fat of standardized milk, coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration and twelve responses, namely moisture, fat, water activity, FFA, yield, hardness, springiness, chewiness, flavour, body & texture, colour & appearance, and overall acceptability. The progressive increased in fat percentage of milk and coagulation temperatiire of milk had significant positive effect while cooking sugar syrup concentration had significant negative effect on moisture content of Cham Cham at linear level. Similarly a significant positive effect was observed on fat content of Cham Cham with fat percentage of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration. There was significant negative effect on water activity of Cham Cham with respect to fat percentage of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration at linear level while fat percentage of milk had significant positive effect at quadratic level. However, free fatty acid content of Cham Cham was affected significantly by fat percentage of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration. It was observed that fat percentage of milk, coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration produced significantly (P<0.01) affected the yield of Cham Cham. A significant (P<0.01) negative interactive effect on yield was observed with both coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration (BC). Textural properties such as hardness, chewiness and springiness of Cham Cham were significantly affected by fat percentage of milk and coagulation temperature of milk at linear level. A significant (P<0.01) negative effect on hardness, chewiness and springiness was observed with fat percentage of milk. The significant (P<0.05) positive interactive effect with fat percentage of milk and coagulation temperature of milk (AB) was observed on all three response. The maximum score was given to product made from milk standardized to 4.50 per cent fat, coagulation temperature of milk 85°C and cooking sugar syrup concentration 60°Brix while minimum score was obtained for product made from milk with 4.00 per cent fat, coagulation temperature of milk 90°C and cooking sugar syrup concentration 65°Brix. There was a significant positive effect of fat percentage of milk at linear level and negative effect at quadratic level along with coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration on flavor score. The highest score was obtained for sample made from milk standardized to 4.50 per cent fat, coagulation temperature of milk 85°C and cooking sugar syrup concentration 60°Brix and the lowest sensory score in respect of body and texture was noticed to Cham Cham prepared using milk standardized to 3.66 per cent fat, coagulation temperature of milk 85°C and cooking sugar syrup concentration 60°Brix. There was a significant positive effect of fat percentage of milk and coagulation temperature of milk on the colour and appearance at linear level whereas significant negative effect at quadratic level. It was observed that fat percentage of milk, coagulation temperature of milk and cooking sugar syrup concentration had shown significant effect on overall acceptability of Cham Cham. Design expert package suggested that the optimized process condition involved the use of 4.77 per cent standardized milk, 87°C coagulation temperature of milk and 60°Brix cooking sugar syrup concentration for the manufacture of an acceptable quality of Cham Cham. The Cham Cham prepared by optimized process was packed in a PVC tray boxes and were monitored for shelf-life study at room temperature (30±2°C) until sensorily unacceptable and visible mould growth observed and up to 14 days under refrigeration temperature (7±20 C). All of the changes related to composition, physical, Theological, sensory and microbial properties of Cham Cham during storage were observed to be significantly affected (P<0.05) by storage period. Significant increased in compositional constituents i.e. fat and carbohydrate was observed with the advancement in storage period. The pH of Cham Cham decreased to 6.16 after 4 days of storage at room temperature, while FFA and HMF content increased with the advancement of the storage irrespective of the storage period. Radical increased in soluble nitrogen was also found at both the storage periods. Similarly, a significant effect (P<0.05) of storage period was observed on the rheological properties of Cham Cham. Hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess values increased while, in springiness and adhesiveness decreased was observed for Cham Cham under storage at 30±2° C and 7+2° C. All the physical and rheological changes taking place during storage affected the sensory characteristics of the Cham Cham. Cham Cham sample stored at refrigeration temperature for 14 days had an overall acceptability score of 7.10 and were acceptable to judges. Same product was having 7.14 score for overall acceptability after 4 days of storage under room temperature and the same product acceptable. During storage, microbial quality of the Cham Cham was also monitored and it was found that the SPC and yeast and mold count increased slowly in the samples stored at 7±2°C but very sharply when stored at 30±2°C. Coliform count in both the cases were observed to be zero. During storage study it was found that the product had a shelf life of 4 days at room temperature and more than 14 days under refrigeration temperature. However, the samples stored at room temperature had showed visible mould growth after 4 days of storage. During comparative study, standardized Cham Cham was compared with the market sample of Cham Cham. On overall, standardized Cham Cham scored maximum score for overall acceptability in comparison then market sample of Cham Cham. However, standardized sample was having remarkably lower values for hardness and chewiness and higher fat and protein contents as compared to market sample. The cost of production of standardized Cham Cham is computed to Rs. 210.94 per kg whereas the market sample of Cham Cham cost is Rs. 280.00 per kg.
