Abstract
AbstractBanana puree, containing 200 ppm potassium sorbate, was stored under simulated commercial conditions at 45° F. When the flavour quality of this purée was compared with that of puree lacking sorbate, it was found highly acceptable even after 6 months of storage. Sorbate‐supplemented purée showed no gross signs of spoilage and had a low population of yeasts, the predominant spoilage organisms. This product is thus suitable for use in bakery, dairy, and other banana‐flavoured specialty food products.
