ABSTRACT
The study was designed to produce complementary food for
infants and growing children from pro-vitamin A fish (Catfish). Soybean, yellow
corn was perceived to be a source of energy. Combination of these ingredients
were incorporated into the original drafts set of complementary foods by
varying food amounts. Four foods (CF2,, CF4, CF5 and CF6) were formulated.
Results on functional properties of the developed complementary foods showed
that water absorption of the complementary food, the bulk density of the foods
were low. The proximate analysis of the complementary showed the protein, fat,
carbohydrate, moisture, crude fibre contents and energy value. Sensory evaluation
performed on the product using 9 hedonic scale (where 1=dislike extremely, 9
like extremely.) shown in the colour range between 6.51-7.16, tastes ranges
from 6. 36=6.69 while overall acceptability ranged between 5.66-7.1 like
moderately. Dietitians from MO UA U were selected to pretest the diets.
