Summary

Secondary analysis of four cauliflower cultivars: Panther, Isabel, Amfora (cvs. with green curds) and Coleman (cv. with a white curd) was carried out in 2001-2002. Stored curds were compared to the non-stored ones. Storage conditions were: temperature 0-1 °C and RH 95%. After 4 weeks of storage, significant changes concerning taste, odour and texture attributes were noticed. The white cultivar obtained a higher overall quality score than the green ones. Off-taste and off-odour intensity increased a little as a result of storage. The multiple linear regression model was calculated to describe the relationship between overall quality and also acceptance and sensory descriptors.
