Fermentation of milk has been used to enhance its shelf life. Though a complete food, milk lacks in vitamin C, iron and fiber. Fermented dairy products can be a viable carrier for fiber enrichment. Consumption of dietary fiber is associated with reduced risk of certain ailments. Orange peel is a rich source of fiber, anti-oxidants, vitamin C and functional food components. The present investigation was carried out with the objective of incorporating orange peel fiber in two forms (i.e. candied peel and peel powder) for value addition to Bhapa dahi.en-USnullINCORPORATION OF ORANGE PEEL FIBER FOR VALUE ADDITION TO ‘BHAPA DAHI’Thesis
