It is apparent that indigenous fermentations improve the digestibility and nutritional value of various foods and contribute towards the nutritional well-being of the world population. Due to the uncontrolled increase of Indian population and rising cost of milk and other proteins of animal origin, the consumption of fermented foods is expected to increase in future in view of the protein malnutrition particularly among the people belonging to the low income group. Since fermentations also produce meat-like flavour and texture in vegetable foods, the products prepared by controlled fermentations can provide a cheaper alternative to feed the additional segments of low income group in developing countries.
