Characterization of deep‐fat frying in a wheat flour–water mixture model using a state diagram

Abstract

The results revealed that physicochemical changes during frying influence the alteration of microstructure and quality of fried food, and the state diagram could be applied to explain the formation of microstructure during the frying process and used as a decision-making tool to choose the proper conditions to provide desirable qualities in fried food.
