Abstract Nutritional and physical properties of noodles incorporated with green seaweed (Ulva reticulata) puree and fish
(Pangasionodon hypophthalmus) mince were evaluated. Four lots of noodles were prepared using different formulations
viz., control noodle without adding seaweed puree or fish meat (C); noodle with 20% cooked pangasius fish meat (T1),
noodles with 20% seaweed puree (T2) and noodles with 10% seaweed puree and 10% cooked pangasius fish meat (T3).
Proximate composition, cooking properties, textural and sensory qualities of noodles were assessed. Results indicated
that addition of green seaweed puree increased the crude fibre content of noodles. Crude fibre content was higher in T2
(2.62±0.18%) followed by T3 (1.71±0.06%). Cooking time for noodles varied between 6.80±0.71 and 9.15±0.21 min and
cooking loss was significantly (p<0.05) higher for noodles with 20% seaweed puree. Significantly higher water absorption
was noticed in noodles with 20% green seaweed puree, which led to softer and spongier textural intensities of the noodles.
Although T2 showed lower score for colour values, its overall score for flavour and taste was higher compared to control
and other treatments. The results indicate that incorporation of green seaweed puree in noodles has positively influenced the
flavour as well as fibre content and hence, it can be used to enrich the fibre content of noodles.
