PEMANFAATAN RUMPUT LAUT (Eucheuma cottoni) PADA PENGOLAHAN BAKSO IKAN

ABSTRACT: Eucheuma cottonii seaweed can be processed into fish ball due to the characteristics of seaweed as gelling,  thickening  and  stabilizing  agents.  The  study  was  conducted  in  two  phases.  The  aimed  of phases I is to determine the maximum concentration of seaweed porridge on fish ball processing to produce fish ball with the best quality gel, whereas the aimed of phase II is to determine the best percentage among seaweed porridge, tapioca flour and fish meat to produce fish ball according to the standard by SNI 01-3819-1995 and preferred by consumers. The results of phase I showed that concentration  of  40%  seaweed  porridge  can  produce  fish  ball  with  the  best  quality  gel,  whereas phases II showed that the treatment of B5 (seaweed porridge 40% : tapioca flour 10% : fish meat 50%)  resulted  fish  ball  with  the  best  quality  gel,  qualified  quality  standards  of  fish  ball  (SNI  01-3819-1995) that is moisture content 81.58%, ash content 1.98%, protein content 9.01%, fat content 0.15%,  and  preferred  by  panelists  with  an  average  value  of  6  (like).  The  addition  of  seaweed  on fish ball can improve the texture of fish ball, reduce the concentration of fish meat, and preferred by consumers.
