Mechanical Hardness Determination of Extruded Snack Food Type Flips

Extrusion cooking represents a very effective process applicable in biotechnoology and food industry. It offers more advantages than other types of cooking processes like faster processing times, significant reduction in consumed energy which consequently, result in lower price of final product. In this work one of the important characteristic of extrudates, mechanical hardness, which is the main texture paprameter, was investigated. Texture quality has influence on taste sensory evaluation, but also helps with consumer's acceptability of product.
