The study was conducted to come across various aspects of preparation of soy-paneer viz., preparation of soymilk, physiochemical characteristics of soy-paneer, effect of soaking time and concentration of coagulant on quality of soy-paneer as well as on retention of major isoflavones, to optimize the soaking time and concentration of coagulant for maximum retention of isoflavone and to obtain high quality soy-paneer. A uniform quality product in respect of nutrition, retention of isoflavones and overall acceptability, was obtained from varying the soaking time and concentration of coagulant.
