PEMBUATAN BERAS ANALOG BERBAHAN DASAR TEPUNG PISANG (Musa paradisiaca)
ABSTRACT: Analog rice is one
of the solutions that can be developed to overcome the problems of food
security both in terms of the use of a new food source or for diversification
of food. The purposes of this study were
to determine the effect of starch as a binder in the manufacture of analog rice
and to examine the properties of analog rice in the term of moisture content,
grains diameter, water absorption, bulk density, and expantion ability. Analog
rice was performed by using a set of analog
rice grain making machine
(granulator). Five different compositions of analog rice were made and
tested. The formulas are pure bananas flour rice (100 % banana flour) and mixed
of banana flour and tapioca flour with ratio of
95 : 5, 90 : 10, 85 : 15 and 80 : 20. The results show that the water content
of analog rice is between 10,41 % and 13,08 %, water absorption range from
36,98 % to 64,32 %, bulkdensity of 0,766 g /cm3 to 0,794 g /cm3, and expantion
ability range from 5,4% to 14,4%. The addition amount of the flour mixture
causes enlargement of the grain diameter.
