Summary

A range of physical tests in parallel with sensory evaluation has been carried out on frozen French fries as a function of frying time. The strength and modulus of samples increases with frying time. The best correlation between sensory and instrumental measures is on crispness and mechanical strength. Oil and water contents change with frying time. Changes in oil and water contents and structure are least between 4 and 6 minutes. Many changes occur after 6 minutes.
