PENGARUH PERBANDINGAN NENAS DENGAN BROKOLI DAN KONSENTRASI GUM ARAB TERHADAP MUTU FRUIT LEATHER

ABSTRACT: The  aim  of  this  research  was  to  find  the  effect  of  ratio  of  pineapple  with  broccoli  pulps  and  several  arabic  gum concentration  on  the  quality  of  pineapple  and  broccoli  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 broccoli pulps (B): (65%:35% ; 60%:40% ; 55%:45% ; 50%:50%) and arabic gum concentration (G): (0,6% ; 0,8% ; 1,0% ; 1,2%). Parameters analyzed were moisture content, ash content, vitamin C content, total soluble solid, crude fiber content, total acid, score of organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture and hedonic of organoleptic values of colour, flavor, taste, and texture. The results showed that ratio of pineapple with broccoli pulps had highly significant effect on vitamin C content, crude fiber content, total acid, score of organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic of  organoleptic values of flavor and texture. Arabic gum concentration had highly significant effect on moisture content, ash content, vitamin C content, total soluble solid, crude fiber content and total acid. Interactions of the two factors had highly significant effect on vitamin C content and had no significant effect on moisture content, ash content,total soluble solid, crude fiber content, total acid, score of organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic of organoleptic values of colour, flavor, taste and texture. The ratio of  pineapple and broccoli  pulps of (55% : 45%) and arabic gum concentration of (1,2%) produced the best quality of fruit leather and accepted by the panelists.
