ABSTRACT
Rose apple is one of the underutilized minor fruit crop. Research was carried out to develop RTS by blending rose apple and jamun in three different proportions of 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75 (rose apple : jamun). RTS containing 10 per cent blended juice (50: 50 per cent juice of rose apple and jamun respectively), 20 per cent TSS and 0.5 per cent acidity was found to be more acceptable with good organoleptic scores. Various physico-chemical parameters were studied during the three months of storage where TSS content, total sugars and reducing sugar had increasing trend whereas ascorbic acid and non- reducing sugar had decreasing trend. Decrease in acidity was in corresponding increase in pH. The product was free from spoilage during the storage period.
Key words :
Physico-chemical characters, Rose apple juice, RTS recipes, Sensory scores, Storage behaviour.
