Abstract :
Parboiling of sorghum is the process carried
out by partial boiling of sorghum after soaking it for 2 to
4 hours for increasing its hardness and nutritional
quality. Maldandi (M-35-1) variety of sorghum was left to
soak, highly steamed at 600C, 700C and 800C, dried and
then milled. The physical and nutritional properties of
sorghum grains were determined. The parboiling of
sorghum was to be found effective in terms of increase in
its milling and nutritional quality. The best parboiling
technique proved for increase in quality of sorghum
grains was soaking of grains at 800C for 4 hours, then
steaming for 20 minute and cabinet drying until moisture
of grains reaches to the 12% dry basis.
