siderably high in Salicornia sp. The overall results point towards the development
of alternative livelihood by using Salicornia sp. as food ingredient. The food products developed from Salicornia sp. are not only rich in nutrients, but also can
upgrade the sweet and snack industries of Indian Sundarbans at cottage level. The
present approach is expected to serve as a roadmap towards further research and
popularization of this extremophile halophyte.
