| Description |
Degrees of cooking of green peas, carrots, radishes and knol-khol were determined in terms of relative hardness. The mean peak compression force values at various cooking time intervals were determined using and INSTRON-Universal Testing Machine (Model 4301). The peak compression force was correlated with the cooking time by developing curvilinear regression analysis. To reduce the effect of absolute values, the peak compression force was converted into dimensionless numbers as relative hardness and was correlated with the cooking times. Finally, empirical equations for degree of cooking were evolved in terms of relative hardness. The coefficients of fit were determined, using R2 and mean modulus (P) values were found in the range of 0.988 to 1 and 5 to 8, respectively.
