<p>This research was aimed to determine the appropriate concentration of fermented and unfermented sorghum flour for bread making which received by the panelists. Sorghum flour was naturally fermented and then dried with cabinet dryer at 60 °C for 8 h. Substitution of sorghum flour either fermented and unfermented performed at various concentration i.e 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%. Organoleptic test results showed that white bread accepted by panelists was subtituted with fermented and unfermented sorghum flour in concentration of 10% and 20%. White bread with fermented sorghum flour substitution of 10% and 20% have moisture content of<br />28.702% and 34.392%, while white bread with unfermented sorghum flour has moisture content 28.660% and 31.857%. Ash content of white bread with fermented sorghum flour 10% and 20% were 0.823% and 0.638%, while white bread with unfermented sorghum flour 10% and 20% have ash content of 0.830% and 0.718%.<br />Fiber content of white bread subtituted with 10% and 20% fermented sorghum flour was 3.375% and 4,206% respectively whereas white bread with 10% and 20% unfermented sorghum flour have fiber content 3.008% and 3.873%. <br />Key words: fermentation, sorghum flour, white bread</p>

Sweet potatoes stored in a humid state will generally sprout, leading to them being deemed inedible by customers. During the sprouting process enzyme activities increase and as such it was assumed that there had been changes in the nutrition and secondary metabolism compounds, e.g. anthocyanins. The purpose of this research was to investigate the changes occurred in the characteristics of anthocyanins during the purple sweet potatoes' sprouting. One-factor Randomized Block Design was used in the research design, i.e. the sprouting time in 6 stages: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 weeks. The results showed that the highest antioxidant activity is 51.61±2.11%, the highest color intensity is 0.72±0.72, and the lowest hue angle value or the lowest h is 30. 75±0.93 o , occurring in the 4th week of sprouting. While the highest total anthocyanin is 222.07±2.65 mg/kg wet weight, and the highest red color value or a* is 12.80±0.49, occurring in the 3rd week of sprouting. The major components that compose purple sweet potatoes are Cyanidin
