твердость, упруг
Как то не могу найти полностью соответствующий перевод этого слова. Но имеется в виду твердость или упругость (что о пище обычно не говорится) продукта. Знаете, когда варите макароны, их можно переварить и будут они совсем мягкими. А если варить меньше, они слегка твердоватые но как раз в точку - это и есть bite.

Comment: "Thanks for your version, which seems to be more appropriate as the term quite often refers not only to spicy product but to all kind of bakery. Although, I still can not find an appropriate Russian word to express this quality in gastronomic terms.

: I believe 'bite' here refers to taste, not to "bite resistance".

just the meaning
In this context, "bite" refers to the product spiciness, or distinct nuances of taste, not to how easy or hard it is to bite.

I would suggest "ostrotA", except in Russian we usually talk of something being more "ostryj" or less "ostryj", and not distinct spicy tastes.
