STUDI PERBANDINGAN NENAS DAN KANGKUNG DENGAN KONSENTRASI GUM ARAB TERHADAP MUTU FRUIT LEATHER

ABSTRACT: The aim of this research was to find the effect of ratio pineapple pulps and water spinach with several arabic gum concentration on the quality of pineapple and water spinach mixture  fruit leather. This research was conducted by  usingcompletely randomized design with two factors, i.e. :ratio of pineapple  and water spinachpulps (%) (P) : (70:30 ; 60:40 ; 50:50 ; 40%:60% ; 30:70) and arabic gum concentration (%) (K): (1,1, 1,2 and 1,3). Parameters analyzed were moisture content, ash content, vitamin C content, crude fiber content, total soluble solid, total acid, score organoleptic values of colour, taste and texture and hedonic organoleptic values  of  colour,  taste,  flavour  and  texture.  The  results  showed  that  theratio  of  pineapple  and  water  spinach  pulps  had  highly significant effect on moisture, ash, vitamin C, crude fiber, total soluble solid, total acid, 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 on moisture, ash, vitamin C, crude fiber,total soluble solid, total acid, and had no significant effect on organoleptic score of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic organoleptic values of texture. Interactions of the two factors had highly significant effect on total solubility solid and had no significant effect on moisture, ash, vitamin C, crude fiber, total acid, score organoleptic score of colour, taste and texture, and hedonic organolepticvalues of colour, flavor, taste and texture. The ratio of pineapple and water spinach  pulps  of  (70%  :  30%)  and  Arabic  gum  concentration  of  (1,3%)  produced  the  best  quality  of  fruit leather  and  more acceptable.
