Abstract

The study assessed the quality of beverage prepared from toasted melon (Colocynthis citrullus) seeds. The melon seeds were toasted at 120 o C for 10 min, dehulled manually, blended with hot water at 1:6 (kernel: water) ratio and the slurry was screened through a double folded cheese cloth. The extract was ameliorated with 5% (w/v) sucrose and then flavored with pineapple, vanilla, lemon, orange, banana and mango flavors. The chemical composition and sensory properties of the beverages were determined. The toasted melon beverage containing pineapple flavor was preferred to the other beverages. The toasted melon beverage containing 0.8 % pineapple flavor had 3.0% protein, 4.0% fat, 2.0% ash, 5.0% carbohydrate, 8.3 o Brix soluble solids and pH of 5.2. The non-flavored beverage was fairly acceptable. However, flavoring significantly (P<0.05) improved the sensory properties of the toasted melon beverage.
用烤瓜子制成的饮料的质量评价
对以甜瓜种子为原料制备的饮料进行了质量评价。将瓜子在120℃下烘烤10 min,人工去皮,用热水按1:6(核水比)混合,用双层折叠奶酪布筛选浆料。用5% (w/v)蔗糖对提取液进行改良,然后用菠萝、香草、柠檬、橙子、香蕉和芒果调味。测定了饮料的化学成分和感官特性。结果表明,含菠萝风味的烤甜瓜饮料比其他饮料更受欢迎。含0.8%菠萝香精的烤甜瓜饮料,蛋白质3.0%,脂肪4.0%,灰分2.0%,碳水化合物5.0%,糖度8.3 o, pH为5.2。这种没有调味的饮料还可以接受。加味剂显著(P<0.05)改善了甜瓜饮料的感官特性。
