Abstract

Minor millets are recognized as important substitute for major cereal crops to cope up with worldwide food shortage and to meet the demand of increasing population of both developing and developed countries [1]. Kodo millet is highly nutritious but has received little attention in terms of product utilization. Supplementation of millets in cereal based products have become increasingly popular due to nutritional and economic advantages. They are considered as a shield against nutritional deficiency disorder and provide nutritional security [2]. Hence the present study was done to formulate and standardize ready to cook mixes with incorporation of kodo millet at 10%, 20% and 30% respectively and to assess the shelf life of formulated ready to cook mixes. Results showed that recipes prepared out of ready to cook mixes with incorporation of kodo millet was highly acceptable. Shelf life evaluation showed that microbial load was within safe limit in the kodo millet incorporated ready to cook mixes upto 45 days.
