Abstract
Abstrack. Liquid smoke is produced from incomplete combustion, contains various compounds with functional properties that can provide aroma, taste, and color. Liquid smoke can be used as a preservative because it contains phenols and acids as anti-bacterial and antioxidant. Application of liquid smoke as a preservative can be done in the drying process using an oven. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the use of liquid smoke on the quality and organoleptic of dried skipjack tuna. The use of liquid smoke in the study was 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% consisting of 3 replications. Using a completely randomized design (CRD) and the smallest real test (BNJ). Parameters observed include water content, protein content, ash content and organoleptic test consisting of 25 panellists. The highest water and protein content found in treatment A2 (1% liquid smoke), were 47.7% and 50.71%, respectively. The highest ash content was found in treatment A1 (0.5% liquid smoke) at 4.56%. While the highest overall organoleptic assessment of color, taste, texture and aroma were the dried Skipjack Tuna with 1,5% liquid smoke with a score of 4.4.
