Resumen
Descripción
The quality of fried chips made from cassava flour depended on total soluble sugar (TSS) concentration and on some paste viscosity parameters of the flour. Chip colour darkened as TSS content increased. Taste was not affected by total HCN content but became bitter as TSS levels increased. Chip HCN concentration was minimal if flour with low HCN was used. Greater surface expansion of the dried chips during frying produced crisper chips. Expansion during frying correlated positively with maximum and setback viscosities of the flour paste.
