Pengaruh Penambahan Lawi-Lawi (Caulerpa Sp) terhadap Karakteristik Produk Selai Nanas (Ananas Eomosus)

Abstract

This research aims to determine the formula and level of panelists' preferences as well as the chemical quality of pineapple jam with the addition of lawi-lawi. The treatment in the research was the addition of lawi-lawi with concentrations of A (75%), B (50%) and C (25%). The organoleptic data obtained was processed using Kruskall Wallis analysis and chemical data using a Simple Completely Randomized Design. Further test results use Duncan's advanced test. The results of the research showed that the pineapple jam formula obtained was by adding different lawsi-lawi: A (75%), B (50%) and C (25%) with the other ingredients used being the same (pineapple 100g, sugar 65g and citric acid 0.2g). Panelists preferred pineapple jam with the addition of 75% lawi-lawi (formula B). Pineapple jam formula A (75% lawi-lawi), has chemical quality characteristics; sugar content 60.20%, viscosity 1875cp, dissolved solids 65.20% and calcium 1.04%. Formula B (50% lawi-lawi) has a sugar content of 57.70%, viscosity of 900cp, soluble solids of 65.61% and calcium of 1.02%. Formula C (25% lawi-lawi) has a sugar content of 51.68, a viscosity of 550cp, soluble solids of 67.13% and calcium of 0.94%. This study shows that pineapple jam with a 75% addition of lawi-lawi (formula A) is most preferred by panelists and has good chemical quality. Overall, the addition of lawi-lawi at various concentrations affects the organoleptic and chemical characteristics of pineapple jam, with the best results at a 75% concentration.
