Notes:
Nigerian foods, akara, chin-chin, and puff-puff, were supplemented with full-fat cottonseed, defatted cottonseed, peanut, sesame or soybean flours. The foods were evaluated using a nine-point Hedonic scale by African and non-African panels. Foods were evaluated for appearance, texture, absence of greasiness, palatability and overall acceptability. The African panel rated all food products for all characteristics significantly (P=0.001) higher than the non-African panel. Protein quality evaluations indicated that full-fat cottonseed, defatted cottonseed and defatted peanut flours could be used to increase the quantity and quality of protein in traditional Nigerian foods.
