Effect of blanching and/or osmotic dehydration on texture and rheological properties of apple tissue

Texture is a key quality attribute that is critical in determining the acceptability of raw and processed fruits. Texture and rheological properties of biological tissues depend on the contribution of different levels of structure and their chemical and physical interactions. Heating process and mas...

Sumario:Texture is a key quality attribute that is critical in determining the acceptability of raw and processed fruits. Texture and rheological properties of biological tissues depend on the contribution of different levels of structure and their chemical and physical interactions. Heating process and mass transfer during osmotic dehydration of fruit tissues take place simultaneously, with complex physical and structure modifications that influence and produce specific rheological behaviors and sensory responses. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
