Abstract
"The studies on extraction and storage of aonla juice,
standardization of recipe for aonla juice based beverages and preparation
of dehydrated aonla slices were conducted at Kittur Rani Channamma
CoUege of Horticulture, Arabha\d, during 2001-2002.
The aonla pulp treated v.dth pectinase-A at 2g/kg for 12 hours had
maximum juice recover (88.35%) v.4th better quality parameters (TSS
10.38%, acidit>^ 1.98%, pH 3.85%, ascorbic acid-293.96 mg/lOOg,
reducing sugar 1.48%, non-reducing sugar 8.26%, total sugar 10.17%,
sugar acid ratio 5.44). The organoleptic scores (out of 5.0) for juice were
3.23 for colour and appearance, 2.73 for taste, 2.62 for flavour and 2.81
for overall acceptabilit^^
The RTS ha\'ing a recipe of 12% aonla juice + 2% lime juice + 1%
ginger + sugar adjusted to a TSS of 15°B was found to be acceptable v.dth
organoleptic scores (out of 5.0) of 3.69 for colour and appearance 3.47 for
taste, 3.35 for flavour and overall acceptability^ The squash ha\'ing a
recipe of 30%o aonla juice + 5% lim.e juice + 2% ginger + sugar adjusted to
a TSS of 40°B was found to be acceptable with organoleptic scores (out of
5.0) of 3.73 for colour and appearance, 3.67 for taste, 3.69 for flavour
and overall acceptabilit>^ The s^Tup ha\ang a recipe of 45% aonla juice +
10% lime juice + 4% ginger + sugar adjusted to a TSS of 68°B v/as found
to be acceptable v.dth organolepdc scores (out of 5.0) ofJ81 for colour and
appearance, 3.50 for taste, 3.24 for flavour and 3.38 for overall
acceptability. For obtaining t±ie organoleptically acceptable good qualit}^
dehydrated aonla fruit slices, blanching the whole fruit followed bj""-
steeping the slices in SCB s;^Tup containing 0.2% KMS for 24 hours and
dr>dng directly under sun was found to be best. The organoleptic scores
(out of 5.0) were 3.88 for colour and appearance 3.38 for texture, 3.88 for
flavour, 4.00 for taste and 3.78 for overall acceptability'. The recovery of
dehydrated slices v/as 35.10% with a dehydration ratio of 2.87. Time
taken for drying under sun v/as 22 hours, v/hereas it was 17 hours in
solar drier and 15 hours in electric drier."
