Developing a Systematic Food Texture Characterisation Methodology for Advanced Manufacturing

University of Edinburgh School of Engineering

Food texture is related to the way our senses perceive and feel the rheological and mechanical properties of edible substances. For example, a potato chip is crispy; an apple is crunchy; butter is soft; bread is firm; candy is hard; yogurt is smooth; cream is thick; cake is moist, and honey is sticky. Read more
