Abstract
The fermented foods are same as traditional food, in appearance and consumed as normal foods but have modified by the addition of certain pro & pre-biotics or fortification with the plant extract, which have specific physiological roles beyond just satisfying nutrition requirement. Fresh leaves of Moringa oleifera were collected from the field of Institutes of Agriculture Sciences, then dried and grounded. The proximate analysis of dried moringa leaf powder and milk was performed. In four different concentrations (0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2%) Moringa Oleifera leaf powder, was used for the production of fortified flavoured yogurt, while mango flavor and color was added to enhance its sensory characteristics. Physicochemical analysis (pH, acidity, ash, fat, protein, fiber, synersis, total solid content and moisture content) was done to check the yogurt nutritional profile and effect of moringa dried leaf powder on it. Sensory evaluation (body texture, appearance, color, taste, aroma, flavor and overall acceptability) is also done by expert panel of food scientist (n = 20) by using hedonic scale to check the acceptability and quality of product.To check the product shelf life stability, product is stored at 5 ± 1 ºC for 15 days and observed for its physicochemical changes and sensory attributes. The sample were analyzed for their stablity as fresh and during storage interval of 10th day and 15th day. Results shows that mango flavored yogurt supplemented with 1% Moringa Oleifera leaf powder has got the highest score in majority of the sensory attributes such as body and texture, flavor, taste and overall acceptability over the storage period of 15 days at 5 ± 1 °C. All treatment showed significantly different (p ≤ 0.05) result from each other. However, higher acidity%, total solids%, protein% and synersis value were observed, than control samples on 0 days (fresh), 10 days and 15 days storage, respectively. While all treatments have less pH and moisture content than control during fresh condition and over storage time of 15 days while fat content was nearly same in all treatments and control sample.
