Abstract
Four supplement mixtures using whole wheat, pearl millet, bengal gram, green gram, groundnuts and amaranth leaves were developed employing roasting and malting techniques. Malting used in the formation of the supplements reduced significantly hot paste viscosity of all the four supplements and increased their nutrient density per unit volume. The results of organoleptic trials conducted on rural mothers revealed that taste, texture, colour, aroma, appearance and overall acceptability of all the four supplements were excellent with mean scores of overall acceptability (9.77, 9.33, 9.11 and 8.75) for supplements I, II, III and IV, respectively. Children did not develop any GIT disorders after consuming the products. Trained panelists found all the four supplements acceptable as indicated by Nine point hedonic scale.
