Effect of germination and roasting on the proximate, mineral and anti-nutritional factors in finger millet (Eleucine Coracana), Cowpeas (Vigna Unguiculata) and orange maize (Zea mays)
Finger millet (Eleucine coracana), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), and bio-fortified vitamin A “orange” maize (Zea mays) are three nutrient dense crops currently being promoted in Zimbabwe. The effect on nutrient content of processing these specific crop varieties has not been investigated. Therefore, this study was designed to determine the effects of germination and roasting on the proximate, mineral, and anti-nutritional factors in finger millet, cowpeas and orange maize. Finger millet grains were germinated for 48hrs, cowpeas and orange maize for 24hrs, at room temperature (20-23oC). Both raw and processed samples were dried and milled into flour for the determination of proximate and mineral and anti-nutritional composition. Protein content of finger millet increased significantly after processing from 6.53±0.25 mg/100 g to 11.27±0.15 mg/100 g in germinated finger millet flour (P<0.05).

Processing of cowpeas resulted in slight but significant increase in protein content (20.47±0.21 to 28.50±0.10), increased calcium (138.18±0.12 to 148.18±0.12 mg/100 g), magnesium (14.23±2.00 to 19.18±0.31 mg/100 g), potassium (232±4.00 to 443.41±0.02 mg/100 g) and iron (4.85±0.03 to 4.86±0.04 mg/100 g).
