ABSTRACT

This study ascertained effects of processing methods on the quality and acceptability of Soybean milk. Three specific on objective and research questions were used for the study. The study adopted an experimental research design. Soybeans were subjected to 3 different processing methods which were the whole soybean seeds and were processed using modified methods of William and Akiko (2000), the soybean were weighed 75 g using 20 capacity weighing scale. Results indicated that the nutrient content of the three soy bean milk samples (SBM A, SBM B and SBM C) were significantly (p≤0.05) different. Sample SBM C ranges from moisture 12.3±0.25  and 41.7a±0.38 more crude protein; 20.3a±0.77 more crude fat ; 21.7a±0.86 more carbohydrates; 5.2±0.76 more total ash; and 5.8a±0.36 more crude fibre than samples SBM A and SBM B respectively. The mean values of the sensory characteristics were equally significantly (p≤0.05) different with the exception of appearance which showed no significant difference. Sample SMC was adjudged most preferable organoleptically, in terms of appearance, taste, aroma and acceptability followed by sample SBM A while sample SBM B received the least nod of organoleptic acceptability. The observed results suggested that steeping before hot extraction might be a better method for processing soymilk in order to improve its wider acceptability. The study recommends that food specialist extension workers should be sent to various towns and regions to continue with the education of rural people on how to process other soybean products such as soybean oil, soybean cake and soybean meal and Government should provide rural people with facilities such as processing machines (like grinding mill, manual bridge press, rain press, decorticators and expellers), at subsidized rates in order to encourage them and to enhance the use of different processing methods of these products that are not available in the rural areas.
