Chemical Composition Of Processed Tender Leaves And Husks Of Cowpea And Organoleptic Attributes Of Their Soups As Consumed In Tiv Communities, Benue State, Nigeria

ABSTRACT

The study examined the chemical composition of fresh, sundried tender leaves and husks of cowpea

Adengee’ (Vigna unguiculata) and organoleptic attributes of their traditional soups. Information on

processing, preparation and utilization of soup meals based on cowpea leaves and husks were obtained

during the focus group discussion. The tender leaves and husks were parboiled and sundried.

Proximate, micronutrients, phytochemicals and antinutrient levels were determined using standard

procedures. The soups based on fresh and sundried leaves and husks were analysed prior to sensory

evaluation. The data collected were statistically analysed using means, standard deviation and standard

error. All values were based on residual moisture. Protein for dried leaves was higher (p
