RESUMO
This paper presents a new variant of the free sorting method developed to analyze the relationship between dried sourdough (DSD) and corresponding DSD-bread (bread) odors. The comparison of DSD and bread sensory characteristics is complicated due to their specific features (for example, acidity for DSD and a characteristic "baked bread" aroma for breads). To analyze them at the same time, this study introduces a new variant of the free sorting method, which adds an association task between DSD and bread after those of free sorting and verbalization. This separation makes it possible to change the product between tasks. It was applied to study the impact of 6 European commercial DSDs on their related DSD-bread. According to our results, this methodology enabled an association between different kinds of products and thus underlined the relationship between them. Moreover, as this methodology contains a verbalization task, it provides product descriptions. Compared with the standard free sorting method, free sorting with an association task gives the distance (i) between DSDs, (ii) between breads, and (iii) between DSDs and breads. The separation of product assessment through sorting and association avoids the separation of products according to their category (DSD or bread).

Magnetic resonance microscopy was carried out at 9.4 T with a voxel volume of 117 x 117 x 500 microm(3) and temporal resolution was adjusted to 8.5 min for a dynamic follow-up of bread dough fermentation during 2 h at a constant temperature of 30 degrees C. An image analysis procedure based on gray levels mathematical morphology routines was performed to assess bubble distribution and cell wall thickness inside the imaged bread dough. The evolution of the extracted curves allows one to characterize quantitatively the amount of bubbles and their growth. Using this procedure, different bread doughs were examined to determine the impact of dough composition on the structure modification during fermentation.
