Physical and sensory quality of green papaya shreds at low temperature
Green papaya shreds were stored at different low temperature regimes of 2°C, 5°C or 10°C with 90-95% relative humidity and the physical and sensory quality changes were determined. Storage at 2-5°C was comparably more effective than 10°C in retarding surface discoloration based on L* and h° values and firmness loss. Sensory quality evaluation revealed, however, that 2°C was most effective in maintaining desirable color, crispness and overall appearance of the shreds.
