RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Effect of Using Different Levels of Cassava Flour As Substitute for Wheat Flour on Sensory Attributes of Monay

This special problem is conducted to determine consumer acceptability of monay prepared from different levels of cassava flour formulation using sensory evaluation in terms of appearance, color, odor, taste, texture and general acceptability. The cassava flour (CF) produced has a creamier white color than wheat flour (WF). It also appeared heavier. This was further supported by Figure 3. The cassava flour helps in sticking together the baking ingredients while mixing. Monay samples from different treatments (based on the level of cassava flour and wheat flour) were subjected for sensory evaluation. The color, odor, taste and texture are some of the important attributes that are being taken into consideration for the sensory value of food. They play an important role in food acceptability (deMan, 1999). Figure 4 presents the newly-baked samples. Table 3 shows the summary of mean scores of each evaluated attribute. Based from the data gathered, Treatment D (70% WF: 30% CF) has the darkest golden brown color followed by Treatment A (100% WF) and Treatment B (90% WF: 10% CF). Results showed that Treatment C (80% WF: 20%CF) has the lighest golden brown color. Theoretically, the higher the level of cassava flour substitution, the darker the crust. This was due to higher sugar content of cassava flour compared with wheat flour. Based on the results gathered, Treatment A has the coarsest texture among the samples followed by Treatment D and Treatment C. Treatment B got the finest and moistest texture. This
