The present study was conducted to appraise the possibility of utilisation of lemon juice as a starter culture for the development of lemon juice fermented curd and optimize its level to be incorporated as starter culture for the preparation of curd. To select a lemon juice starter culture at its optimum desirable level, three different levels viz., 2.5, 5 and 7.5% along with control of commercial starter culture were used to prepare curd. Among different treatments, 5% level of lemon juice was adjudged optimum for the preparation of lemon juice fermented curd and imparted beneficial effects on sensory, physicochemical and microbiological properties of curd.
