Summary

FRESHLY HARVESTED GREEN BEANS WERE FROZEN. THE EFFECT OF EACH PROCESS ON THE FINAL QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT WAS INVESTIGATED. MEASUREMENTS OF TEXTURE AND SENSORY EVALUATIONS WERE MADE. TEXTURE-COOKING TIME CURVES WERE OBTAINED, GIVING A MATHEMATICAL AND GEOMETRICAL DEFINITION OF CONSUMPTION SUITABILITY. MEASUREMENT DATA AND THE EVALUATION BY A TASTE PANEL SHOW THAT THE OPTIMUM COOKING POINT IS ATTAINED WHEN THE FORCE APPLIED BY THE TEXTUROMETER IS 500 N/G MAXIMUM.
