Abstract:Guilin rice noodle were tested for seven taste evaluation indexes, including salt absorption rate, oil absorption rate, color difference value, porosity, brine absorption rate, brine flavor similarity, and sensory evaluation. The salt absorption rate of each group of samples is 1.05% -1.80%, oil absorption rate is 0.4% -1.0%, brine absorption rate is 1.69% -3.93%, porosity is 13.56% -34.56%, color difference value is 20.42-31.61, flavor substance similarity is 25.49-32.59, and sensory evaluation result is 41.71-49.75 points. Through principal component analysis of these indicators, the cumulative contribution rate of the first two principal components is 89.08%, and the linear relationship expression between the principal components and Rice noodles flavor property indicators is determined, so as to establish the evaluation model of Guilin rice noodle taste properties. Then measure the quality evaluation indexes of Guilin rice noodle, such as broken bar rate, moisture content, spit value, paste degree, iodine blue value, rehydration rate and texture index. With the comprehensive score of Guilin rice noodle as the dependent variable, and the quality evaluation index of Guilin rice noodle as the independent variable, use stepwise regression analysis to screen the quality indexes of Guilin rice noodle that affect the taste properties of Guilin rice noodle and establish a prediction model of Guilin rice noodle taste properties. The prediction model takes hardness, broken bar rate, elasticity, and chewiness as the reference indexes. The two sets of models provide reference for the improvement of Guilin rice noodle evaluation system and quality improvement from the perspective of consumers and production and processing.
