Description Studies were carried out on the effect of the substitution of 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% fenugreek seed powder on the textural and quality characteristics of vermicelli. The stress value increased from0.03–0.037 N/m2, although the stickiness value decreased from 67–48 g with the increase in fenugreek level, respectively. The data on sensory quality characteristics of vermicelli showed that there was an improvement in appearance and strand quality as fenugreek increased.However, at 10% substitution, the mouthfeel and flavor were affected. Vermicelli with 7.5% fenugreek had the highest overall quality score of 33 out of 40. The surface scanning electron micrographs of the raw and cooked control and vermicelli with 7.5% fenugreek showed that the micrograph of vermicelli containing fenugreek had a somewhat thicker matrix than the control, and starch granules were enveloped in a coating of fenugreek gums.
