Based on the single-factor experiments,response surface methodology was employed to optimize processing technology for stirred chestnut yoghurt,such as chestnut/milk ratio(v/v),sugar,inoculum and fermentation time.The regression equation was obtained through response surface methodology.Results showed that the optimal processing technology was ratios of chestnut to milk 2.34∶8,sugar content 6.28%,inoculum 3.15% and fermentation time 4.95h.Under these conditions,score of sensory evaluation of chestnut yoghurt was(93.159±0.650),which was very close to the predicted value of(94.551±0.420).
