This study aims to develop Red Mung Beans (Vigna Angularis) Pita Wrappers as an
innovative and healthy food product. The research contributes to the food business by
introducing a novel variant of pita wrappers made from red mung beans, a nutrient-dense
ingredient with significant health benefits. The production process includes several crucial
steps: boiling the mung beans to soften them, followed by wet milling, dehydration to
eliminate moisture, grinding the raw materials into flour, double sifting for a smooth
consistency, pan-frying to improve flavor and texture, vacuum sealing with propylene
plastic to maintain freshness and shelf life and storing at chiller. These steps were designed
to retain the nutritional value of the red mung beans while delivering a high-quality
product. The nutritional composition of the Red Mung Bean Pita Wrappers was rigorously
analyzed using advanced techniques such as Kjeldahl analysis for protein, Modified Fritted
Glass Crucible for ash content, Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry for mineral content,
and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for vitamin evaluation. Results
revealed a rich nutritional profile with 24.45% protein, 3.56% fiber, 51.55% iron, and 85
mcg of Vitamin B9 (folate). A sensory evaluation using a 9-point hedonic scale was carried
out to ensure consumer acceptance. Feedback was collected from 10 trained panelists, 10
households, and 30 untrained panelists, along with input from 50 additional evaluators,
resulting in a general acceptability rating of "Like Extremely." The findings highlight the
potential of Red Mung Bean Pita Wrappers to meet market demands for healthier,
innovative, and sustainable food products, fostering community-driven initiatives and
promoting advancements in the food industry.
