Effect of honeydew honey addition on the water activity and water holding capacity of kefir in the context of its sensory acceptability
Abstract The aim of the research was to check how the addition of honeydew honey and various compositions of starter cultures affects the water holding capacity, water activity, color, syneresis and consistency of the obtained kefir in the context of its sensory acceptability. In this research, 2.5%...
