Mean values for each characteristic followed by different letters within a column differ significantly (P = 0.05)
scores obtained in case of appearance property of
rice noodles varied from 3.5 to 7.32 on a 9-point
hedonic scale [5, 13, 34-35, 65]. Thomas et al.
[14] evaluated the appearance of Bario rice and
Basmati rice. The appearance of Bario rice scored
higher as compared to Basmati rice (6.8 and 4.3,
respectively).Wheat flour is sometime blended
with rice flour in order to improve the cooking and
sensory properties of rice noodles [61, 100]. The
first parameter assessed by the consumer in food
product is color, so the evaluation of visual color as
part of sensory attribute is very crucial [97].
Another important sensory property assessed
is flavor, which influences the amount of food
consumed by the consumer. Usually the aroma
of noodle product is determined by subjective
evaluation. Aroma is evaluated subjectively based
on the experience of panelists by smelling. Thomas
et al [14] found slightly higher acceptance rate in
case of aroma of noodle made from Basmati rice
(5.87) than Bario rice (5.73). Previous literature
showed a sensory liking score for taste of rice
noodle in the range of 5.1 to 6.7[5, 13, 103]. The
panelists observed little variation in the score for
taste of rice noodle samples [13].However, rice
noodle blended with wheat flour showed higher
acceptance (6.18−7.48) in term of aroma [86]. The
aroma of cooked product is generally considered a
minor quality factor than other sensory properties
(taste, texture, color, etc.), as it minimally affect the
consumer choice for accepting a product [5].
Texture is an important quality factor for
accepting the product in the marketplace. Texture
is defined as the property of food structure that
can be observed in response to the applied force.
