ABSTRACT
The proximate composition and
functional properties of raw and roasted almond (Terminal/a catappa) nut to
ascertain different products that can be produced from it were investigated.
Chemical analyses showed that the crude protein and fat contents of raw and
roasted almond nuts. were 19.25%, 19.78% and 54.30%, 56.30% respectively. There
were significant differences (p< 0.05) in the protein, fat, crude fibre,
moisture and carbohydrate between the raw and roasted almond nuts except for
ash content which showed no significant difference (P~0.05). The following
functional properties - water and oil absorption capacities, bulk density, foam
capacity/stability, gelatinization temperature and wettability tests were
carried Out. There was significant difference at (P 0.05) in the functional
properties of raw and roasted almond nuts except for water absorption capacity
which showed no significant difference (P~0.05). The gelatinization ability of
raw almond nuts indicated that it can be used in thickening of soups and
sauces.
