Abstract:
Jackfruit is one of the important delicious fruits in the world. The raw jackfruit can
divide into edible (47%) and non-edible (58%) the edible portion consist of bulbs and
seeds and the non-edible portion consist of the skins, peels and rind. Jackfruit seeds are
often discarded as waste. The research study was carried out to reduce the wastage and
improve the utilization of jackfruit seeds through the development of value-added
products such as optimization of tea bun prepared from jackfruit seeds flour. Now a
days there is a rising interest in consuming health beneficial food products. Tea buns
are considered as an importance food in breakfast. Incorporating the jackfruit seeds
flour with wheat flour can enhance the nutritional value of the tea buns to solve the
nutritional problem specially to enhance the protein and fiber content of the product.
Main objective of this study to determine the optimal formulation for tea buns by
varying the proportion ofjackfruit seeds flour in combination with wheat flour, while
maintaining desirable sensory, texture and nutritional properties. For that jackfruit
seeds were collected, clean, steam, cut and dried under the oven drying. The dried
jackfruit seeds are ground and get the flour. In addition to I use wheat flour. Tea buns
were prepared based on wheat flour substituted with jackfruit seeds flour in different
concentration including 10g(Tz), 20g(T:),30g(T+), a0g(Ts) and also control treatment
Og(Ti). After all ingredients are mixed well and make the dough. After that divide the
dough into small pieces finally baked process was done. Based on the jackfruit seeds
flour incorporated with wheat flour tea bun were undergone proximate, and sensory
evaluation. The incorporation ofjackfruit seeds flour caused a significant influence on
sensory and chemical attributes. Increasing the level of jackfruit seeds flour level
supplemented with wheat flour caused in increased in the darkness of tea bun to
compared to the control treatment. And also, tea bun sample substituted with 20g(Tl)
jackfruit seeds flour had the highest mean score of overall acceptances.
