The Hindu Business Line : Noodles and ice cream from fish

The ice cream under the name Maricream has been developed by the scientists at CIFT, Kochi. Cooked cuttle fish is the main ingredient, while water sugar, butter, egg white, flavouring substances, stabilisers and emulsifiers are also used. In the process the ice cream is deodorised and it is free of fish flavour. Precautionary measures are taken at all steps of processing to ensure that it is bacteria-free. As the fish protein provides all essential amino acids, Maricream is a highly nutritious dessert, a press release issued here said.

The fish noodles is also nutritious as the powder used in this is rich in protein, calcium and phosphorus. Noodles are prepared by incorporating edible fish powder made from small bony fish using commercial noodles-making machine. This will be quite different from the conventional noodles in the market, CIFT said.
