  In the present study, the effect of soy flour fortification on the chemical and physico-chemical properties of malted sorghum flour for probable industrial uses was investigated. Malted sorghum-soy composite flour was prepared by mixing malted-sorghum flour with soy flour at varying proportions (0-40%). The composite flour mixes were evaluated for proximate and mineral composition, anti-nutritional factors and functional properties. Reconstituted thick paste “amala” prepared from all the samples were evaluated for consumer acceptability. The results showed increment in the proximate content of the composite flour as the ratio of the soy flour in the mixes increases. The protein content of the flour mixes increased from 7.3% to 19.2%. The blend containing 40% soy flour substitution had the highest protein, fat, ash and fiber content. The mineral content increased while the .. View More»
