Abstract
Khakhra is a traditional ready-to-eat snack or breakfast item. Khakhra is a crispy version of Roti; it is usually a handmade cracker and roasted to provide crunchiness. Flaxseed, or Linseed (Linum Usitatissimmum), popularly known As Alsi, Jawas, Aksebija in Indian languages, is a blue flowering Rabi crop and a Member of family Linaceae. It is well known that flax seeds are a source of high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Flaxseed is rich in the essential omega-3 fatty acid, alpha linolenic acid. omega-3 fatty acids have biologic effects that make them useful in preventing and managing chronic conditions. For preparation of Flaxseeds khakhra different formulations were made such as T1, T2 and T3. Sensory evaluation of Flaxseeds khakhra was carried out and score recorded was T3 sample observed higher score of colour, flavour, texture, appearance and taste of the sample significantly affected with addition of various formulation. Proximate analysis was carried out and score recorded was obtained T3 sample observed percent of moisture content, fat, Protein, Carbohydrate, ash and Energy value is (1.693 %), (9.929 g/100g), (5.712 g/100g), (78.153 g/100g), (4.513%) and (424.821 kcal/100g) respectively. Prepared Flaxseeds khakhra packaged by using Aluminum foil and HDPE was found most suitable for packaging with respect to its stability and acceptability. Development of soft texture during storage is the limiting factor for shelf life.
