Abstract

The pasting characteristics of Florido yam (D. alata) slurries prepared from instant flakes of five different particle sizes, were studied. The blue value indexes (BVI) of the instant flakes were also determined. It was found that flake size affected the BVI and the viscosity of the flake slurries as measured with the Brabender Amylograph-Viscograph. A high correlation coefficient (r = 0.96) was found between the BVI of yam flakes and the initial viscosity of the slurries.
