Determination of Energy Profile in Processing Cassava (Manihot species) into ‘Gari’ in a Local Oven

Duduyemi Oladejo, Okunzuwa Mark, K. A. Adedeji & K. O. Oluoti · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2016

The dry-frying process is the most critical operation in the processing of cassava (Manihot species) into ‘gari”. The local technique of ‘Garification’ in batch operations was found to be most dependent on prevailing processing temperature with regular agitation. The temperatures...
