Processing conditions (potato level, frying temperature and frying time) were optimized for the development of buckwheat based chips using response surface methodology (RSM). Moisture content, oil uptake, color values, hardness and overall acceptability (OAA) were used as indices of product quality. The polynomial regression model was fitted with R values of 0.983, 0.982, 0.98, 0.996, 0.973, 0.984 and 0.985 for moisture content, oil uptake, L, a*, b* values, hardness, and OAA respectively indicating fitness of the models. Potato level and frying temperature showed a significant effect on all responses at linear and quadratic levels except frying temperature for OAA at the linear level and hardness at quadratic level. Frying time showed significant effect on a* value, b* value, hardness and OAA at linear level. Interaction between all processing variables had a significant effect on a* value. Interaction between potato level and frying temperature had significant negative effect on moisture content of buckwheat chips. Potato level (30%), frying temperature (169 °C) and frying time (51 s) were found to be the optimum processing conditions with maximum OAA (8.36). 0.33 a was established as the water activity at which maximum stability of chips was shown. Buckwheat chips packed in both polypropylene (PP) and metallised polyester (MP) remained stable and acceptable for 6 months at RT whereas for 3 and 6 months in PP and MP films respectively at 37 °C.

Chrysanthemi Flos has been consumed as floral tea for centuries, but the effects of stir-frying on its chemical profile, sensory characteristics, and bioactivity remain unclear. This study used untargeted metabolomics, sensory assessment (E-eye, E-nose, E-tongue), and antioxidant activity evaluation to investigate compositional changes and their effects. In the metabolomics analysis, a total of 101 non-volatile and 306 volatile differential metabolites were identified.

This review provides an overview of the main vegetable oils of different botanical origin and composition that can be used for frying worldwide (olive and extra-virgin olive oil, high-oleic sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, rice bran oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil and coconut oil) and their degradation during this process. It is well known that during this culinary technique, oil's major and minor components degrade throughout different reactions, mainly thermoxidation, polymerization and, to a lesser extent, hydrolysis. If severe high temperatures are employed, isomerization to fatty acyl chains and cyclization are also possible.

Scallops, an economically important seafood, are popular as fried snacks. Vacuum low-temperature frying creates crispy, healthier foods that meet consumer demand for nutritious snacks with excellent texture. However, research on vacuum frying for shellfish products remains limited.
