Sugar concentration effect on chutney
From Table 4, among different sample (chutney) the highest score (7.4) for color was for sample C40 followed by C35 and lowest score (5.1) for C25 preceded by C30. The highest score (7.2) for flavor, (7.4) for texture and (8.0) for Overall acceptability was for sample C40 and the order was similar as noted earlier for color. For flavor and texture there was no statistical significant difference between sample C35 and C30 as they were suffixed by same letter (b). Sample C40 was significantly different from all other as suffixed by different letter (a). On the basis of overall acceptability, the sample C40 was ranked as “Like very much” due to its mean score (8.0) as per Rangana (1991). Sample C40 was identified as best sample (candy) as its score for color, flavor, texture and most importantly overall acceptability was highest among the others. So it can be claimed that the high concentration of sugar gives better quality chutney as the C40 was made with 40% sugar whereas C35, C30 and C25 was made with low concentration (less than 40%) of sugar. Comparing all the sample of pickles and chutneys, it was clear that highest acceptability (8.8) was for C40. From this it can be claimed that higher sugar concentration gives higher acceptability (Table. 4 & 1) as the taste is prominently influenced by sweetness (Bhuiyan et al., 2012).
