PENGARUH PERBANDINGAN NENAS DENGAN PEPAYA DAN KONSENTRASI GUM ARAB TERHADAP MUTU FRUIT LEATHER
ABSTRACT: The aim of this
research was to find the effect of ratio
pineapple with papaya pulps and several arabic gum concentration on the quality of
pineapple and papaya
of mixture fruit
leather. This research
was conducted at
the Laboratory of
Food Technology, Faculty of
Agriculture, University of Sumatera Utara, Medan, using completely randomized
design with two factors, i.e. :ratio of pineapple with papaya pulps (P) : (65%
: 35% ; 60% : 40% ; 55% : 45% ; 50% :
50%) and arabic gum concentration (K):
(0,6%, 0,8%, 1% and 1,2%). Parameters analyzed were moisture content,
ash content, vitamin C content, curb fiber content, total soluble solid, total
acid, pH, score organoleptic values ofcolour, taste and texture and hedonic
organolepticvalues of colour, taste, flavour and texture. The results showed
that ratio pineapple with papaya pulps provide highly significant effect on
moisture content, ash content,
vitamin C content,
curb fiber content, total soluble
solid, total acid, pH,
score organoleptic values of
colour, taste and texture, and
hedonic organoleptic values of colour,flavor, taste and texture. Arabic gum
concentration had highly significant effect on moisture content, vitamin C
content, curb fiber content, total soluble solid, total acid, score
organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic organoleptic
values of texture. Interactions of the two factors had highly significant
effect on moisture content, and had no significant effect on ash content,
vitamin C content, curb fiber content, total solubility solid, total acid, pH, score
organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic organoleptic
values of colour, flavor, taste and texture. The ratio of pineapple with papaya
pulps of (50% : 50%) and arabic gum concentration of (1,2%) produced the best
quality of fruit leather and more acceptable.
