Artificial
nori is a dry sheet food product resembling nori made from materials other than
seaweed. In this study, nori was made from green grass jelly and papaya. The
quality of artificial nori can be influenced by its binding material. Cassava
starch has potential as a binder in making analog nori. This study aims to
determine the potential of cassava starch to improve the quality of artificial
nori made from green grass jelly leaves in terms of moisture content, total dissolved
solids, water absorption capacity, texture, and sensory quality. The addition
of 5% cassava starch to artificial nori made from grass jelly and papaya leaves
reduced the total dissolved solids, water absorption capacity and hard texture
of artificial nori, but had no effect on other sensory properties. Cassava
starch has the potential to improve the texture of artificial nori so that it
is drier but not too brittle.
