The effect of roasting on particle size distribution, water-holding capacity, and viscosity of sunsik was investigated in this study using non-roasted one as control. Roasting increased the size of particles in sunsik, in particular, particles larger than 1 μm in diameter, indicating that roasted sunsik is likely to sediment faster, thereby decreasing the time to maintain dispersibility when mixing with water. Roasting also increased the water-holding capacity of sunsik, indicating that polymerization occurred greater than a pyrolysis during roasting, leading to increased viscosity in roasted sunsik. These results indicate that the roasting affected the dispersibility and viscosity of sunsik by increasing particle size and water-holding capacity, respectively.
