Abstract

The fundamental aim of this research was to study changes in the physical properties of spaghetti during cooking and after the first hour of storage.In addition, the research evaluated the cooking properties of pasta.For testing purposes, eight samples of spaghetti, produced using semolina and common wheat flour, were used.After cooking, the samples of spaghetti were stored for 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min.After storage, the samples of cooked spaghetti were cut, and both the cutting force (hardness) and the cutting energy (firmness) of the samples were determined.It was found that, after storage, the cutting force and energy of cooked pasta decreased, in average terms, from 1.0 to 0.44 N and from 0.84 to 0.43 mJ, respectively.The statistical analysis showed a significant correlation between the storage time and the textural parameters of pasta.The hardness and firmness of pasta, which was al dente after cooking, were found to decrease about twice during storage, as a result of water migration.The hardness of pasta stabilised after 50 min of the storage of cooked spaghetti.Moreover, the obtained data revealed that the diameter increase index of spaghetti could indicate the quality of pasta.

  • PSP-infused gluten-free pasta demonstrated enhanced cooking qualities and sensory qualities, suggesting pasta formulation versatility.

    “(PSP-infused gluten-free pasta demonstrated enhanced cooking qualities and sensory qualities, suggesting pasta formulation versatility (Biernacka et al., 2019).”

    From Valorization of Pomegranate and Banana By-products into Value-added Products: Influence on Physicochemical, Rheological, and Consumer Attributes (2025) · cites this paper as Biernacka et al., 2019

    The Materials and Methods section (page not provided) identifies the eight tested samples as commercial spaghetti made from common wheat flour or durum semolina. A search for PSP and purple sweet potato found no passage reporting PSP-infused gluten-free pasta or improvements in its cooking and sensory qualities; the claim therefore cannot be verified from this paper.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
