a–c Different letter between rows indicate significantly different values (p < 0.05) following Duncan’s post hoc means-comparison test. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 3). MC: Moisture content, SR: Percentage of water gained [g]/total solids [g], WS: percentage of soluble solids [g]/total solids [g].
