Abstract

Purpose: The study was designed to evaluate the processing of fish and beef crackers under Sudanese conditions.

Methodology: 2kg Tetraodon fahaka fish meat, 2kg beef top side cut, corn flour, and spices were purchased from local market, and then prepared for processed cracker. The processing formula consist of 50% Meat or fish with 50% corn flour.

Findings: The products were significantly different chemically in lipid content 19% for fish and 14 % for beef cracker and similar in moisture, protein, and ash%. (WAI) water absorption index, (WSI) water Solubility index determined without different between products. Linear expansion and oil absorption were differently 15.6, 10.7, 19.7, and 2.1for fish and beef cracker respectively. Sensory characteristics were determined included colour, falavor, Crispness, overall acceptability. The panelists prefer cracker fish in overall acceptability.

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: Cracker fish products are traditional food in Asia; it’s made of fish and sea food which increases the nutritional value, and is taken between meals. Most of the snacks available in the market are mainly based on cereals, which are high in calorie and low in protein content. For this reason, snacks like fish or beef crackers with high protein content was thought to be developed for nutritional enrichment. Cracker fish and beef were processed in Sudan had acceptable chance to increases the nutritional value for children which like crispness. Cracker it can be useful in IDP camp for displaced human in Darfur province.
