Synergistic Flavor Modulation and Functional Enhancement of Douchiba via Compounding with Bacillus subtilis-Fermented Adlay

Traditional Douchiba (DCB), a bacterial-type fermented soybean condiment, suffers from pronounced bitterness and limited functional attributes, hindering its broader application. To address these challenges, this study innovatively compounded matured Bacillus sub- tilis-fermented adlay (BFA) with DCB at varying ratios to develop a fermented adlay-DCB seasoning (FADS). Key physicochemical, nutritional, functional, and sensory parameters were systematically analyzed, and a multidimensional...
