Abstract
This research is to develop functional paneer by adding natural herbs like garlic (Allium sativum) and mint (Mentha arvensis) to enhance the sensory appeal and nutritional value. Buffalo milk was used to prepare paneer with varying concentrations (0.5%, 1%, and 2%) of garlic and mint. The prepared samples were evaluated for sensory characteristics and proximate composition. Based on sensory characteristics like colour, flavour, texture, and overall acceptability, 1% garlic and mint added to functional paneer showed better results, along with improved nutritional values. This research suggests that herbal fortification is a promising strategy to produce dairy products with enhanced functional properties.
