dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study was to produce arrowroot starch flakes with dumbo catfish (Clarias gariepinus) flour, as a rich energy, protein and mineral food for elderly. Design of this study was using Complete Randomized Design with four formula and each combination was replicated two times. A selected formula was determined based on semi trained panelists preference. Acceptance of selected flakes formula was examined by elderly using hedonic test. Flakes by addition of 33% of dumbo catfish flour was the selected formula. The chemical properties for selected flakes were as follows 4.00% of water content, 4.84% of ash content, 16.90% of protein content, 5.21% of fat content, 69.06% of carbohydrate content, 14.48% of calcium content and 8.61% of phosphorus content. The selected flakes contain 390.71 Kcals energy per 100 g. The selected flakes had contributed more than 20% of energy, protein, calcium and phosphorus for elderly people so it can be claimed as a food product rich in energy, protein and mineral | en |
