Carotenoid content of pandanus fruit cultivars and other foods of the Republic of Kiribati
Background Kiribati, a remote atoll island country of the Pacific, has serious problems of vitamin A deficiency (VAD). Thus, it is important to identify locally grown acceptable foods that might be promoted to alleviate this problem. Pandanus fruit ( Pandanus tectorius ) is a well-liked indigenous Kiribati food with many cultivars that have orange/yellow flesh, indicative of carotenoid content. Few have been previously analysed. Aim This study wa…
Davuke, the traditional Fijian method of pit preservation of staple carbohydrate foods
The traditional Pacific method of food staple preservation by fermentation in pits has been studied. The details of the method as performed in Fiji are discussed as well as the nutritional and chemical changes undergone by breadfruit during this fermentation. The taste acceptibility of the product was tested as well as ways to adapt the procedure to modern conditions. The process is a lactic acid fermentation and the nutritional quality of the pr…
