The present study was aimed to determine the impact of processing (dehulling or germination) on the structure and rheological behaviour of gruels made from sorghum, soybean and sesame. A rotational viscometer was used to determine the rheological parameters of gruels from these materials. Compared to each raw material, the processing presented a significant effect on the viscosity of the gruels. The power law model was better described the rheological behaviour of the gruels. All gruels were time-dependent fluids, except for germinated sorghum-based gruels. Most of them were thixotropic shear-thinning fluids, only germinated sorghum-based gruels are non-thixotropic shear-thinning fluids and those from dehulled soybean exhibited anti-thixotropic behaviour. The apparent viscosity of gruels decreased with temperature, fitting an Arrhenius relationship, with the activation energy ranging from 5973 to 27,674 J/mol. The rheological behaviour of these foods will helps to understand the behaviour of any products based on their mixture.
