Abstract:
The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the nutrient composition of kulcha prepared from three varieties of pearl millet with incorporating soyabean flour. The protein and fat content of kulcha developed from HC-20, HHB-67 improved and WHC-901 were observed as 14.26, 13.53 and 13.79 g/100g and 9.23, 8.71 and 9.88 g/100g, respectively. The concentration of calcium and iron in kulcha developed from HC-20, HHB-67 improved and WHC-901 were 39.51, 40.35 and 39.57 mg/100g and 4.47,3 3.57 and 3.16 mg/100g, respectively. It was found that development of pearl millet based bakery products is not only nutritionally superior but also provides an alternative to wheat based bakery products.
