Summary

Effects of slow-freezing, programmed-freezing (slow + quick + slow) and quick-freezing showed quick freezing (-5 deg C/min) best for texture. As freezing rate decreased, drip increased. A wide difference among experimental samples in fine structure was revealed by cryoscanning electron microscopy.
