Abstract
The promising cultivars such as Phule Safed, Phule Suvarna, N-2-4-1 and Baswant-780 were used for processing into dehydrated flakes.
The data revealed that the moisture content of freshly prepared dehydrated flakes was observed within the range of 5.00 to 5.20%, which furthermore increased during one month storage (5.40 to 5.90%) at ambient temperature.
The highest dehydration ratio was found in Phule Suvarna (1.35) followed by Phule Safed (1.30), N-2-4-1 (1.25) and Baswant-780 (1.10). The flakes prepared from Phule Suvarna recorded the highest total sugar (55.70%) followed by Phule Safed (53.63%) initially, where as the lowest total sugars were noticed in N-2-4-1 (48.57%). The highest organoleptic score for colour flavor, crispness and general acceptability was recorded in Phule Suvarna initially and even at one month storage.
