Abstract

The present study was designed to determine the optimal concentration of  Shatavari powder for integration into poultry meat nuggets. Various levels of  Shatavari powder, at 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%, were incorporated into the formulation  of poultry meat nuggets, comprising 75% chicken and 25% duck meat, along with  2% jackfruit powder. Based on the sensory attributes, 0.5 percent shatavari powder  was selected as the optimum level . Shatavari powder had a significant effect on  the flavor, juiciness, texture, saltiness, and overall acceptability of the developed  nuggets. The increase in levels of shatavari powder had an adverse effect on the  sensory attributes due to the inherent bitter taste of the powder. The addition of  shatavari powder at 0.5% in the nugget formulations was effective in sustaining  the desired sensory attributes besides the nutritional benefits. Hence, acceptable  functional nuggets can be made with the addition of shatavari powder up to two  percent over and above the nuggets formulation containing 2 % jackfruit powder  without affecting the sensory attributes.
