Description
Summary:The acceptability of tomato ketchup is dependent on desired mouth feel and acceptable sourness. The acceptable tomato ketchup can be developed with 2.75% corn flour, 7 and 10% of cooked pumpkin and bottle gourd and 0.4% CMC along with 1.5% acidity as acetic acid based on RSM. The vegetable based thickener of bottle gourd and pumpkin in manufacture of tomato ketchup yielded maximum serum separation of 2.2-3.0 ml while negligible serum separation was obtained in tomato ketchup with corn flour and CMC stabilizer. Tomato ketchup with vegetable based thickener of bottle gourd and pumpkin contained maximum (40.17- 57.08 and 41.75-51.79 mg/100g) ascorbic acid, respectively among all the formulations.
