3.1. Cooking methods
The best cooking method was chosen according to the preference
of 30 non-trained panellists (consumers outside university)
from three cooking trials of each method. The condition that gave
the highest overall acceptability (4.5 out of 5) was chosen as
described in the method section. Rice grain that received a high
acceptability score was classified by a smooth appearance with a
fragrant smell. Good coherence could be seen with minimum
crumbles and cracks (Fig. 1).
