1 Exercise: Different Variety Grains

Use your textbook to fill out the first column of the following Results Table. Next, use fresh samples to evaluate the appearance (color), aroma, and particle size of each of the flours or meals. To evaluate particle size, rub a thin layer of flour or meal between your fingers and rate how fine or coarse it feels. Use this opportunity to learn how to identify different flours from their sensory characteristics alone. Add any additional comments or observations that you might have to the last column in the Results Table. Use the two blank rows at the bottom of the Results Table to evaluate additional flours and meals, if desired.
