Abstract: Peach kernels Sensory characteristics Extra virgin Fat-and-oil product Peach-kernel oil Peach-kernel oilcakeThe peach cultivars were analysed as a source of kernels, raw materials for fat-and-oil products.It was found promising to study the kernels from such peach cultivars as Cardinal, Nectarine, Flamingo, Moldavsky, and their blend (25% of each variety) grown in Ukraine and Moldova and harvested in 2020, 2021 and 2022.These cultivars are the ones widely used in the food canning industry.The fat-and-oil products obtained from the above samples (oil and oilcake) have undergone sensory analysis.The sensory evaluation results for the oils from various peach cultivars were as follows: for those harvested in 2020, the highest sensory score was for Cardinal (5.0) and Moldavsky (5.0), the lowestfor their blends (4.7).For those harvested in 2021, the highest sensory score was for Moldavsky and Nectarine (5.0), the lowestfor Cardinal (all parameters 4.7, clarity 4.8).For those harvested in 2022, the highest sensory score was for Moldavsky (5.0), the lowestfor the blends (all parameters 4.5).The sensory evaluation results for the oilcake from peach kernels were as follows.For the kernels of peaches harvested in 2020, the highest sensory score was for Moldavsky (5.0), the lowestfor blends (4.5).For those harvested in 2021, the highest sensory score was for Moldavsky and Nectarine (5.0), the lowestfor Flamingo (all parameters 4.9).For those harvested in 2022, Moldavsky and Nectarine were graded the highest (5.0), and the blendsthe lowest (all parameters 4.6).It is worth pointing out that the results for all fat-and-oil products (oilcake and oil) from kernels of different peach cultivars harvested in 2020-2022 were almost equally excellent by a complex of sensory parameters.However, those for Moldavsky and Cardinal were the highest.
