Table 4.

Results of specific volume, solubility, hydration and water retention properties and emulsifying properties of white cabbage (WC) and broccoli (B) powders. Spec V: specific volume (mL); % solubility expressed as a percentage; HG: hygroscopicity (%) (gwater/100 gsample); Wt: wetting time (min); SC: swelling capacity (mL/g); WHC: water holding capacity (g/g); WRC: water retention capacity (g/g); OHC: oil holding capacity (g/g). G: ground; C: chopped; HAD: hot-air drying at 50, 60 and 70 °C; FD: freeze drying. Mean ± standard deviation of three replicates.
