PENGARUH LAMA PENGERINGAN KENTANG DAN PERBANDINGAN TEPUNG TERIGU DAN TEPUNG KENTANG TERHADAP MUTU COOKIESKENTANG

ABSRACT: Potato  consists  of high  moisture  that has  highly caused of  damage effect and  consist  of lower  starch  than the  other sweetpotato. Cookies is a kind of food with a low moisture so that has a longer storage period. The aim of this research was to find the best time of drying of potato for making potato flour and the ratio of wheat flour with potato flour on the quality  of  potato cookies. This research  was performed by  using completely randomized design  with  two  factors,  i.e : potato drying time (L) : (4 hours, 4,5 hours, 5 hours and 5,5 hours) and the ratio of wheat flour and  potato flour (P) : (80%:20%,  60%:40%,  40%:60%  and  20%:80%).  Parameters analyzed  were  moisture  content,  protein  content,  ash content,  volume  expansion,  fat  content,  fiber  content,  hedonic  values  of  flavor  and  taste,  score  values  of  color  and texture. The result showed that the drying time of  potato had highly significant effect on moisture content, fat content, fiber content, hedonic values of flavor, hedonic values of taste and score values of color. The ratio  of wheat flour with potato flour had highly significant effect on moisture content, protein content, ash content, volume expansion, hedonic values of taste, score values of color and score values of texture. Interaction of the two factors hadno significant effect on all parameters except moisture content. The drying of 4,5 hours or the ratio of wheat flour and potatoflour of (80%:20%) produced the best quality of potato cookies.
