Abstract:Kalimatar seeds were evaluated for their physical characteristics and cooking qualities. Physical characteristics of Kalimatar seeds measured in millimeters per seed were as follows: length 6.65 +/- 0.11; breadth 4.76 +/- 0.09; and thickness 4.49 +/- 0.07. Cooking qualities of the seeds were evaluated as follows: 1,000-seed weight 199.95 +/- 0.34 g; 1,000-seed volume 152.0 +/- 0.58 mL; seed density 1.27 +/- 0.02 g/mL; hydration capacity 1386.1 +/- 2.63 g/kg; and swelling capacity 1493.4 +/- 3.82 mL/L.
