Carpathian Journal of Food Science and Technology <strong>2011</strong>, 3(1), 28-38 Seven samples were prepared by different concentration of date paste with one control. Date palm variety i.e. Berhi was found to contains higher TSS, mineral and fibre than Safri variety. It also has been found that the per cent paste obtained from one kg of Berhi variety date was more than Safri variety. It was found that increase in concentration of date paste in yoghurt <strong>de</strong>creases setting time irrespective of variety. With respect to synersis of yoghurt, synersis <strong>de</strong>crease with increasing concentration of paste. The acidity, moisture and total soluble solids was found to increase with increasing concentration of date paste in case of sample. Organoleptic evaluation with colour, appearance, flavour, taste and overall acceptability showed highly significant effect due to addition of date paste. Yoghurt containing 10 per cent of date paste found to be superior compared to control in case of both variety and treatment. It is conclu<strong>de</strong>d from the present investigation that the use of date paste improved the qualities of the fortified cow milk yoghurt at lower concentration up to 10 per cent. While with respect to varieties, Safri was more suitable than Behri variety for yoghurt fortification. Hence, it is conclu<strong>de</strong>d that addition of 10 per cent Safri date paste in yoghurt improves the organoleptic as well and physico-chemical properties of yoghurt. 5. References 1.
