Formulation and Standardization of Millet Spinach Muthiya

Résumé

Millet Spinach Muthiya is a traditional Indian snack prepared with pearl millet (40%), finger millet (20%), and spinach leaves, enriched with spices and condiments. Pearl millet contributes protein and fiber, while finger millet provides iron, calcium, zinc, and protein. Spinach enhances flavor and further improves the nutritional profile through its vitamins, minerals, fibers, and flavonoids. Two variants were developed and evaluated: Sample A (steamed) and Sample B (fried). A total of nine formulation trials were conducted, of which the ninth trial for both samples was selected based on sensory evaluation. Proximate and nutritional analyses revealed that the steamed product (Sample A) was superior to the fried product (Sample B) in terms of protein, fiber, and mineral retention, confirming its higher nutritional value. The study highlights the potential of millet-based functional foods and emphasizes the scope for developing improved processing techniques and mechanization for millet products.
