Tuna has good nutrition for the human body, content such as high protein, vitamin and mineral content, and has a delicious taste, so this fish can be diversified. One of the products is fish floss that can be used as functional food. This study aims to determine: (1) determine effect of banana blossom addition in fish floss to organoleptic parameter (2) determine effect of banana blossom addition in fish floss to peroxide value and water content. The method used in this study is an experimental method with an experimental design in the form of a simple Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The independent variables in this study were the concentration of banana blossom 30%, 50%, and 70% while the dependent variables were organoleptic, water content and peroxide value. The best fortification of banana blossom is 70% with organoleptic score of appearance 5.178; scent 4.922; texture 5.078; and taste 4.944. The peroxide value in the tuna floss product with 70% banana blossom concentration is 0.578 meq/kg and water content 13.33%.
