Abstract

Rice quality is known to influence market value, hence quality evaluation is essential for rice companies. Quality assessment of cooked rice can be determined by expert sensory panel analysis, but this process is costly. Some studies have attempted to use instrumental methods as an alternative to sensory analysis (Suwannapron et al., 2007), however, further studies are required to validate these methods. In this study, a comparison between instrumental methods and sensory evaluation was undertaken to assess the relative merits of these techniques for the comparison of similar rice cultivars and samples that have been stored at different temperatures.
