| Summary: | analyzed. The results indicated that I drying rate was and texture using convection-oven-baking, air impingement at higher air temperatures; shrinkage of the piece was before frying. A commercial batch fryer was used. The center of tortilla chips during frying was analyzed. The dry masa flour. They were baked, sun dried and then fried drying and frying was suggested and validated. drying was analyzed. The results indicated that the final effect of solar drying of the tortilla chips on the rate of frying. The difference in the temperature profile at the higher at lower convective heat transfer coefficient, and in fresh soybean oil. Control chips were not sun-dried microstructure looked smoother at higher air temperature A moisture loss, oil absorption, texture, microstructure, and mostly affected by the air temperature, texture was crispier nixtamalized masa flour, and dried under impinging hot air. of solar drying, the structure of the tortilla chips was oil content of the sun-dried tortilla chips was plateau, and the boiling point of water during the frying process to produce low-fat tortilla chips with good flavor process, Tortilla pieces were also prepared from rate, texture, shrinkage profile and microstructure was results showed a clear difference in the length of the significantly lower than the control treatment. As a result The effect of different drying conditions on the drying the physical properties of tortilla chips during and after tighter before frying, but expanded significantly during Tortilla chips were prepared from commercial nixtamalized |
