The influence of different cooking regimes such as boiling, oven, microwave and hot-air drying on the retention of total phenolics (TP), total carotenoids (TC) and in vitro antioxidant capacity (AC) for three colored arracacha roots was studied. Continuous losses of TP, TC and AC during the course of the different cooking processes were observed. Boiling at 99.5° C for 20 min turned to be the best method to cook this root due to a high retention of TP, TC and AC in comparison to oven cooking at 200° C for 45 min and microwave cooking at 800 W for 5 min. During boiling, chlorogenic and caffeic acids and derivatives remained relatively stable. The drying temperature was negatively correlated to the residual content of TP and AC for the yellow and cream arracacha roots, but for the cream/purple arracacha variety, blanching preserved the TP and AC. Significant losses in chlorogenic and caffeic acids and derivatives were mainly observed during hot-air drying. These results suggested that TP are responsible to a large extent of the AC displayed by arracacha root during the different evaluated cooking regimes.

Fresh rice noodle was usually coated in a large amount of oil to avoid stickiness and extend the shelf life. Pre-treatment has been applied to reduce the quantity of oil in rice noodle. In this research, the pre-treatment and temperature effect on the rice noodle quality subjected to hot air drying, heat pump drying, and freeze drying was investigated. Texture, color, oil content, and starch gelatinization of the dried noodle was further evaluated. Results revealed that there were significant differences (p < 0.05%) in texture, color, oil content, and starch gelatinization in rice noodle subjected to pre-treatment. Furthermore, the texture, color, oil content, and starch gelatinization demonstrated a significant difference (p < 0.05%) in freeze drying rather than hot air drying and heat pump drying. The findings indicate that the qualitative features of the dehydrated noodle are synergistic to pretreatment and drying temperature. Despite superior quality shown by freeze drying, the hierarchical scoring has proven that rice noodle undergoing hot air drying at 30 °C to produce comparable quality attributes. The hierarchical scoring can be a useful tool in quality determination for the food industry.
