  • Abstract
    In the current study, peanut-milk was used as the main raw material for kefir preparation. Rheological characteristic, textural properties, mineral elements and amino acid composition of kefir made from peanutmilk (PMK), 7/3 peanut/skimmed-milk (70% PMK) have been investigated using whole-milk kefir (WMK) as a control. Results showed that, PMK sample had the highest (p 0.05%) complex modulus (G*), firmness and the lowest (p 0.05%) adhesiveness. However, both 70% PMK and WMK had high minerals and essential amino acids content.
