Rice bran and red beans are one of food items that contain high dietary ï¬ber and can be processed into traditional snacks such as baked getuk (cassava cake). Elderly needs enough ï¬ber to support their metabolism. This study aims to analyze the effect of rice bran and red bean substitution of getuk toward its acceptance and dietary ï¬ber contents. This study was an experimental study with a completely randomized design. There were four treatments of rice bran and red beans substitution (F0 = 0% rice bran, 0% red beans); (F1 = 10% rice bran, 13% red beans); (F2 = 13% rice bran, 10% red beans), (F3 = 17% rice bran, 7% red beans). This study further involved 30 untrained elderly and pre- elderly panelists (45–80 years). Acceptance was measured using a hedonic questionnaire on a scale of 1 to 6. Statistical analysis of acceptability differences was completed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney test with α ≤ 0.05. In results, there were signiï¬cant differences between F1, F2, F3, and F0 on all characteristics (color, aroma, texture, taste) with p = 0.001, and the acceptance rating from highest to lowest was F3, F2, F1, respectively. The organoleptic test results further showed that the panelists mostly preferred the F3 formula (17% rice bran and 7% red beans). There was no signiï¬cant difference in dietary ï¬ber content between each formula, F1 contains 9.250 grams of dietary ï¬ber (30.8% RDA), F2 contains 9.242 grams of dietary ï¬ber (30.8% RDA), and F3 contains 9.235 grams of dietary ï¬ber (30.7% RDA). This study proved that rice bran and red red beans substitution to getuk improves its ï¬ber content and also having good acceptability.
