STUDIES ON FLAVOR CHANGES DURING DRYING OF DILL (Anethum sowa Roxb.) LEAVES
1994
Indian dill (Anethum sowa Roxb.) is a popular herb widely used in culinary
preparations and is characterized by a persistent cineolic flavor. To study the
flavor quality of the fresh and dried herb, it was subjected to through-flow,
cross-flow, vacuum and freeze drying procedures. The volatile oils obtained from
the fresh and dried samples were examined by gas chromatography and gas
chromatography - mass spectrometry and the changes in their flavor compositions
determined. Seventeen compounds have been identified in Indian dill leaf
oil, of which (3-cubebene is being reported for the first time. The proximate
composition of the dried herb is also reported.
