Use of L.Bulgaricus and L.Casel Bacteria Which Function as Fermentation Media for Ginger Flavored Yogurt

Abstract

Yogurt is a drink made from fermented bacteria, namely L.Bulgaricus and L.Casel, but from this research, the researchers want to conduct research on yogurt which consists of ginger which contains antioxidants. This research aims to see the level of liking of this yogurt. This yogurt has benefits that are quite helpful in health problems, namely preventing: colds, coughs, headaches, aches, rheumatism, nausea, motion sickness, impotence, Alzheimer's, cancer, and heart disease. As for the physical form, the panelists liked it, except for the texture/viscosity which seemed a little lumpy. For the organoleptic test, the following are the results: 6.5% of the panelists think to choose SS (like very much) 7.25% of the panelists believe to choose S (like) 0.75% of the panelists think to choose TS (don't like) 0, 5% of the panelists thought to choose STS (strongly dislike it). The technique used in this research is interviews with research subjects and panelists who will fill out an organoleptic test questionnaire with a hedonic scale in the form of a checklist
