dunschilligheid
Het gaat blijkbaar om de mate van glanzendheid vs. matheid/verkurking, met een score van 0 (hoog/goed) tot 5 (laag/slecht). Zie de beschrijvingen in de vermelde Engels- en Nederlandstalige referenties. In het Engelstalige document vind je ook een foto op blz. 60.
Example sentence:
"The bloom (sometimes also called shine or lustre) is measured as the specular (i.e. direct or mirror-like) component of optical reflection from the potato skin surface. [...] The scale rates the bloom on a scale of 1 (good) to 5 (poor)."
"Dunschilligheid (verkurking): [...] aardappelen met een schil die nog geheel niet is verkurkt (jong en glanzend uiterlijk), wordt beoordeeld met een 0. [...] Als alle aardappelen [...] geheel verkurkt zijn, worden [ze] beoordeeld met een 5.
