Abstract
The development and acceptability of the bottled big-eyed Scad Selar crumenophthalmus in Spanish Style organic flavoring such as oregano Origanum vulgare, lemon grass Cymbopogon spp., and turmeric Curcuma longa was done in this study. There were forty (40) purposively selected panelist to evaluate the finished product. The acceptable level of the product was determined using the 9-point hedonic scale. Furthermore, each treatment was characterized its color, odor, aroma, and taste and was describe using the semantic scale. Acceptability and Desirability Composite Index (ACI) was used to determine the ranking of each organic flavoring. The bottled big-eyed Scad without organic flavoring (BBWoOF) was not comparable to the bottled big-eyed Scad with the different organic flavoring. Furthermore, the BBWoOF was preferred by the panelist based on the acceptability composite index.
