Based on the graph, it can be seen that the higher
the substitution concentration of fermented corn
flour, the lower the level of panelists preference for
overall cookies. The results of analysis of variance
showed that the different formulations of fermented
corn flour and wheat flour have a significantly affect
on the panelist assessment of the overall cookie
produced. The significance of differences is shown in
Table 3.
The data in Table 3 showed that the substitution
concentration of 80% fermented corn flour (80:20)
resulted in a lower panelists assessment and were
significantly different from other treatments. This is
because the higher the substitution concentration of
fermented corn flour, the physical test value of the
texture hardness of cookies decreases (the cookies is
softer) in line with the organoleptic quality of
crispness hedonic decreases (not crispy).
Thus, the panelists evaluated the overall dislike
along with the increased concentration of fermented
corn flour substitution. The result of ranking test
showed that the panelists liked the cookies with the
formulation of fermented corn flour and wheat flour
20:80).
4 CONCLUSION
From the results of the research it can be concluded
that different formualtions of fermented corn flour
and wheat flour did not significantly affect on the
parameters of physical quality of texture (hardness),
chemical quality (moisture, ash, protein, fat,
carbohydrate, and crude fiber content) and hedonic
quality (color, aroma, taste and crispness), but
significantly affect in the overall liking level
parameter.
Based on physical, chemical and oragnoleptic
tests, the formulation of fermented corn flour and
wheat flour (20:80) is a formulation that can be
produce quality cookies with the charachteristics:
hardness value 3462,42 gF; moisture content 1,47%;
ash content 2,43%; protein content 7,29%; fat content
24,74%; carbohydrate content 64,08%; crude fiber
content 1,34%. Based on the organoleptic tests, the
color is yeloowish brown, the aroma and taste of corn
is strong slightly and the texture is crispy.
