SEM micrographs of fresh, steamed, and water-blanched G. elata at different central temperatures of the cross-section with the largest diameter; (A,B): fresh G. elata at a magnification of 150× and 2000×, respectively; (C–J): G. elata that was steamed until a core temperature of 45 °C, 60 °C, 75 °C, and 85 °C at the cross-section with the largest diameter at a magnification of 150× and 2000×, respectively. (K–R): G. elata that was boiling water blanched until a core temperature of 45 °C, 60 °C, 75 °C, and 85 °C at the cross-section with the largest diameter at a magnification of 150× and 2000×, respectively.
