The project focuses on developing high-protein curry sheets from organic golden apple snails, aiming to add value to this economically promising aquatic species. It creates safe, sustainable food innovations that cater to health-conscious and environmentally aware consumers.
The project "High-Protein Gaeng Proe Sheets from Organic Golden Apple Snails" is of great significance in terms of developing local food innovation with enhanced nutritional value, while responding to the needs of health- and environmentally-conscious consumers. The project aims to add value to the golden apple snail — an aquatic species with promising economic potential in Thailand — owing to its rapid reproduction and ability to feed on a wide variety of plant matter.
- Research Background: The research team has been developing the breed and conducting farming trials for over five years.
- Engagement: Findings have been consistently presented at KMITL Innovation events.
- Future Outlook: The project is currently seeking support from various funding sources to scale up and transfer knowledge to farmers.
This project serves as a valuable initiative in transforming organically farmed produce into safe and sustainable food product formats.
Objective
The objectives are to determine the optimal formulation for high-quality, consumer-accepted products and to design packaging and business plans for commercial production.
- To study the optimal proportions for developing a high-protein curry sheet prototype from organic golden apple snails that meets quality standards and consumer taste preferences for commercial distribution.
- To design packaging and a business plan for the high-protein curry sheet product to prepare it for commercial production.
