Production of chips from potato cultivars (Solanum tuberosum L.) with high sugar content using lactic acid fermentation
1995
Tubers of twelve cultivars ofSolanum tuberosum L., with a varying content of reducing sugars (0.49–2.30 g/100 g fresh weight), were sliced and fermented for up to 48 h by lactic acid bacteria in a brine of 1.5% NaCl, prior to frying. The content of reducing sugars decreased by 80 to 100%, depending on the initial sugar level. Colour of chips was measured using the CIE (1976) L*a*b* colour system, where L* is lightness, a* is redness and b* is yellowness of the material and by IBVL colour cards, photographs used for grading the colour of potato chips. L*-values were the best measurement of chip colour. The scale of the IBVL colour cards was too narrow (scale 1–9) for this study, as chips from eight of the cultivars were scored lighter than IBVL 9 after 48 h of fermentation.
