Abstract:
The Indian subcontinent’s traditional fermented dairy beverage, Lassi is prepared from yogurt, curd, water, sugar, salt, spices and occasionally fruit. Modern variations of Lassi include functional ingredients including herbs, fruits, nuts and seeds to boost its functioning and nutritional worth. Studies on the making of Functional Lassi with Jaggery and Chia seeds have been done. The information gathered on various aspects were tabulated and statistically examined using analysis of variance techniques. Functional Lassi was prepared by incorporating curd with 8, 10 and 12 per cent Jaggery and 1, 2 and 3 per cent Chia seeds. The organoleptic characteristics, such as colour and appearance, body and texture, flavour, sweetness, and overall acceptability, were assessed in Lassi samples of various treatments and controls by trained panelist using a 9-point hedonic scale. Based on the results, it was determined that the among the combinations, Lassi with 10% Jaggery and 1% Chia seeds was found to be extremely acceptable by sensory evaluation.
