Antioxidant Activity, Fortification, Proximate Composition, Rice Bran Oil, Sesame Oil, TofuAbstract
Paneer prepared from edible-quality de-oiled soy flour is known as tofu. Functional tofu was augmented with specific antioxidants such as oryzanol and lignan obtained from rice bran oil (RBO) and sesame oil (SO), respectively. All the fortified and control tofu were evaluated for physicochemical (proximate composition, oxidative stability, antioxidant activity, penetration, and color property), microbiological, and sensory properties. The total viable count and yeast and mold counts increased slowly in the samples stored at 4 °C in the refrigerator for 9 days. Fortified tofu showed higher oxidative stability and antioxidant activity than the control tofu during storage conditions. Additionally, tartaric acid-coagulated tofu retained its quality attributes, especially taste and overall acceptability, during refrigerated storage. Functional tofu aided in an innovative technological technique for making functional non-dairy products with boosted healthy constituents.
