Abstract:

The physical and chemical properties of tiger nuts milk were found to be favourable, with a high fat content of 20-30% and a protein content of 5-7%. The pH level of the milk was slightly acidic, ranging from 6.5-7.0. In terms of nutritional content, tiger nuts milk was found to be ironic in vitamins E and C, as well as reserves such as potassium, magnesium and determined. The dietary fibre content was also relatively high, ranging from 2-4%. Additionally, the milk was found to contain antioxidants, which can help protect against oxidative stress and inflammation. The microbiological quality of tiger nuts milk was found to be good, with a low bacterial count and the presence of beneficial microorganisms such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. In terms of sensory evaluation, the milk was found to have a creamy texture and a slightly nutty and sweet flavour. The overall acceptability of the milk was high, with a high rating for taste, texture and overall acceptability. The processing and preservation of tiger nuts milk were found to be critical factors in maintaining its quality and shelf life. The optimization of processing conditions, such as temperature, pressure and enzyme treatment, was found to affect the physical, chemical and nutritional chattels of the profit. The use of preservers, such as potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, was found to cover the ridge life of the milk. Additionally, the packaging and storage conditions of the milk, such as refrigeration and freezing, were found to affect the eminence and ridge life of the milk.
