Development and Consumer Evaluation of Aerva lanata Incorporated Ready to Eat (RTE) Snack| Chapter 6 | Emerging Challenges in Agriculture and Food Science Vol. 5

The convenience, affordability, taste, look, and appeal of RTE and RTC foods have all improved in recent years as a result of changing lifestyles. Aerva lanata is a green leaf vegetable with a long history. It has cultural, culinary, and medical significance. Both jowar and Aerva lanata are high in nutrients. The study's main goal is to include dry leaf powder into several jowar chakli recipes and assess sensory and customer approval. Initially, the leaves were blanched, dried, and mixed into jowar chakli before being tested for sensory assessment in the Nalgonda area of Telangana state. Based on the sensory results, a 10% leaf powder with jowar chakli was chosen. The test sample's flavour was far more popular than the control sample's. A total of 100 individuals from various age groups were randomly selected to test the best-selected formulation for consumer approval. The survey indicated that the product's price, colour, texture, flavour, and general acceptance were all favourable. Incorporating traditional green into popular goods offers diversity, enhances nutritional content, lowers raw material costs, and has a positive economic impact.
