ABSTRACT
A study was conducted on fluted
pumpkin (Telfairia occidental/s hooker flu) seed to investigate its dehuiling
and the relationship between the pretreatments prior to dehulling of the seed
and its physicochemical properties. Seeds were treated by boiling, steaming and
roasting for 20, 40 and 60 minutes respectively. Results showed that 40 minutes
boiling was an optimal time for achieving the easiest dehulling operation on
the seeds. Similarly, steaming and roasting for 60 minutes also gave easy
dehulling; with steaming for 60 minutes giving the overall best performance. AU
the treatments positively and negatively affected the physical and
physicochemical properties of fluted pumpkin.
