Research Abstract |
To develop a black soybean product for a dysphagia diet, we prepared black soybean gels, which were produced to add black soybean broth with soybean protein isolate. It is designed for the dysphagic patients to take easily and for adding foods with high nutrient and functionality. These gels were analyzed using statistical technique such as covariance structure analysis about textural properties, sensory evaluation and swallowing dynamics.As a result, the black soybean gel with 16% concentration of soybean protein isolate was evaluated easy to swallow, which was suggested it was suitable as a dysphagia diet.
