Optimization of the preparation process of mango peel filling using response surface methodology
In order to develop and utilize mango peel and increase the added value of by-products in mango pro-cessing,mango peel was used as the main raw material to prepare mango peel filling.Using the addition of white sugar,peanut oil,and corn starch as independent variables and sensory evaluation as indicators,the preparation pro-cess of mango peel filling was optimized through response surface methodology based on single factor experiments.The results showed that the optimal process formula for mango skin filling were 100 g of mango peel pulp,10.3 g of white sugar,4.5 g of peanut oil,and 4.0 g of corn starch.Mango peel filling was made through the best process formula,presenting yellow green color with a mango aroma,glossy and oily texture,and delicate taste.
