Abstract
The population which is below the poverty line is devoid of nutritious diet. Egg and milk are categorized as complete foods. The defensive organizations are situated in such remote places where fresh food material is not available. Keeping in view these problems, the study of organoleptic variables, viz., color, appearance, aroma, texture and taste in the food products of cake, omelet doughnut, coconut macaroon and mayonnaise from fresh egg and egg powder, was conducted. Principal component analysis was carried out. Organoleptic properties of doughnut prepared from egg powder were superior compared to fresh egg which had better sensory traits for coconut macaroon. The sensory traits like taste, texture and aroma were the most influential traits studied to pronouncing as a panel decision. It is proposed that fresh egg and egg powder should be preferred in the process of preparation of coconut macaroon and doughnut, respectively.
