Abstract
Possibility of preparing sandige (penitype) by incorporating 50 to 90% cowpea flour in. to rice flour was investigated. Physical and sensory qualities of the blends of cowpea sandige were similar to rice flour sandige. The acceptability scores were significantly higher in sandige made from cowpea-rice flour blend, when compared to the traditional p roduct Sandige with 16.5% protein content could be obtained using equa l proportion of cowpea and rice flours.
