Abstract

1. Kisra is made by baking at 150 deg to 160 deg C for 1.5 to 2 s thin sheets of dough made from 1 kg sorghum flour and 2 litres of water and fermented for 18 h. During fermentation protein, fibre, tyrosine and methionine increased whereas starch and sugars decreased. Kisra made from 3 varieties of sorghum contained moisture 52 to 53, protein 0.5 to 11.5, nonprotein N 0.80 to 0.99, starch 60 to 61, total sugar 1.9 to 2.1, fibre 3.8 to 3.9 g and thiamin 0.42 to 0.55, riboflavin 0.12 to 0.33 and niacin 3.15 to 3.22 mg/100 g
