In order to investigate the change regulation of mechanical and color texture of blanching okra,and establish mechanical texture evaluation methods of blanching okra,two kinds of contact patterns of hardness tests were taken on okra slices by TA-XT2i Texture Analyzer. The hardness of okra slice was measured under different blanching temperature,blanching time and cooling conditions. The color of blanching okra was measured by DC-P3 colorimeter at the same time. It was found that the compression work as the ...
