ABSTRACT
Tiger nut drink is an energetic, diuretic, whitish beverage rich in nutrients and minerals prepared using tiger nut. It is considered as a medicinal drink. Tiger nut drink can be used to develop a yoghurt-like product. A good yoghurt is an example of a probiotic product. Tiger nut drink can be subjected to spontaneous fermentation by its natural flora. Using tiger nut extract, was able to produce probiotic yoghurt. This study evaluate physicochemical properties and shelflife of yoghurts produced from tigernut milk using different amount of starters cultures. Fresh Tiger-nuts and sachet powder milk (peak) were used to carry out the experiment. The pH, titratable acidity and proximate composition (moisture, ash, fat, protein content and total sugar content) of each treatment were determined using the method of A.O.A.C. The experimental data was analyzed using Analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine significance difference between the means and was expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD). The level of significance was P ≤ 0.05. This study strengthens the position of starter developed tiger nut yoghurt as good supplier of protein and moderate fat.
