Shrikhand is a popular Indian dairy dessert prepared by the fermentation of buûalo milk. It is manufactured from breaking of curd called as chakka and then mixing with other ingredients. Ashwagandha root extract has been added by optimization for manufacturing of Ashwagandha root extract modulated shrikhand. Since this medicinal plant has immunomodulataory properties, we can call our product as ‘immunodulatory shrikhand ’. Sensory and textural parameters were analyzes in the manufactures sample and was observed that it varies significantly and quite acceptable by the semi-trained panels.
