Fisheries. Angling description: Analog rice is an artificial rice that resembles the shape and texture of conventional rice. It can be made from carbohydrate-rich ingredients such as Beneng taro and corn. The substitution of agar powder in the formulation of analog rice is presumed to enhance its functional properties. This study aimed to determine the optimal concentration of agar powder from Gracilaria sp. in the formulation of analog rice. The research was conducted from December 2024 to April 2025 at the Fishery Product Processing Technology Laboratory, Department of Fisheries Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used with four levels of agar powder concentration: 0%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. The research stages included analog rice production; testing of physical parameters (whiteness degree, rehydration capacity, swelling power); chemical parameters (moisture, ash, fat, protein, and carbohydrate content); and hedonic parameters (appearance, aroma, taste, and texture). Data were analyzed using SPSS Version 20.0. Hedonic tests were analyzed using the Kruskal Wallis test, followed by the Mann-Whitney test if significant differences were found. Physical, dietary fiber, and proximate analyses were assessed using ANOVA at a 5% significance level, followed by Duncan’s multiple range test when significant. The best treatment was determined using the De Garmo effectiveness test, and nutritional adequacy (RDA) was calculated using Microsoft Excel. Data were presented in tables and charts descriptively and comparatively. The best analog rice formulation was found at a 7.5% agar substitution. The physical characteristics included swelling power of 110%, rehydration capacity of 107%, and whiteness degree of 31.2%. Chemical properties included 11.30% moisture, 1.89% ash, 0.18% fat, 1.73% protein, 84.80% carbohydrate (by difference), and 5.40% dietary fiber. Hedonic values showed scores of 5.07 for appearance, 5.53 for aroma, 5.1 for taste, and 6.03 for texture. The substitution of Gracilaria sp. agar in analog rice made from Beneng taro and corn starch improved its physical and hedonic characteristics. date: 2025 type: Thesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/17/KHODIJAH_4443210048_Fulltext.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/18/KHODIJAH_4443210048_01.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/3/KHODIJAH_4443210048_02.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/4/KHODIJAH_4443210048_03.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/5/KHODIJAH_4443210048_04.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/6/KHODIJAH_4443210048_05.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/7/KHODIJAH_4443210048_Ref.pdf format: text language: en identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/49655/8/KHODIJAH_4443210048_Lamp.pdf identifier: KHODIJAH, KHODIJAH (2025) KARAKTERISTIK BERAS ANALOG BERBASIS PATI TALAS BENENG DAN PATI JAGUNG DENGAN SUBSTITUSI AGAR RUMPUT LAUT (Glacilaria sp.).
