Abstract:
The present study was conducted to study the effects of varieties and processing treatments like roasting, germination and germination then roasting and varieties on nutritional composition of fenugreek seeds. Among different varieties the maximum moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre, dietary fibre, total ash dry matter, carbohydrates and energy contents was found in NDM-116 (7.53%), NDM-2 (39.20%), NDM-116 and NDM-2 (10.48 & 10.47%), NDM-120 (15.49%), NDM-120 (24.61%), NDM-1 (5.952%), NDM-80 (93.50%), NDM-80 (41%), NDM-116 and NDM-2 (348 Kcal) per 100 g respectively. Among the various treatments the maximum moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre, dietary fibre, total ash dry matter, carbohydrates and energy contents was recorded in raw (7.96%), germinated then roasted (32.47%), raw (9.23%), germinated then roasted (16.12%), raw (25.67%), germinated then roasted (6.37%), roasted (94.04%), raw (41%), roasted (343 Kcal) per 100 g respectively.
