Effect of high hydrostatic pressure on the physicochemical characteristics of low sodium mortadella containing a high level of mechanically deboned poultry chicken meat.

High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is an emerging technology that can be applied to improve the functional properties of emulsified meat products. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of HHP (100 and 200 MPa) on low-sodium mortadella produced with high content of mechanically deboned poultry meat (MDPM). Seven treatments were produced: FC (2.

Effect of processing (cutter versus continuous emulsifier) and sodium reduction on the physicochemical properties of bologna sausages.

Background: Overcoming the impact of sodium reduction in the properties of emulsified sausages is a current challenge in the production of healthier meat products. Because the emulsifying process play a key role in the stability of sausages, the present study aimed to evaluate the effects of two mechanical emulsifying systems (cutter versus continuous emulsifier) and two levels of sodium chloride (2.50 and 1.

Bioactive compounds in kombucha: A review of substrate effect and fermentation conditions.

Plant bioactive compounds have been studied mainly for their beneficial antioxidant properties. Kombucha is a fermented beverage traditionally obtained from fermentation of sweetened black or green tea by a characteristic consortium of yeasts and bacteria. The beverage naturally contains bioactive compounds from teas and their synthesis can be increased during fermentation.

Glyceryl monostearate-based oleogels as a new fat substitute in meat emulsion.

Bologna sausages were produced with 25, 50, 75 and 100% of their pork fat content replaced by monoglyceride based-oleogels prepared from conventional or high oleic sunflower oils. Physicochemical, technological, and sensory properties of Bologna sausages were evaluated. Emulsion stability was little affected by fat replacement.

Using inulin-based emulsion gels as fat substitute in salt reduced Bologna sausage.

Background: A high-fiber emulsion gel (EG) containing inulin, soy protein isolate, and soybean oil was applied as animal fat replacer in reduced salt and fat Bologna sausage containing mechanically deboned chicken meat, pork meat, and pork back fat. Technological and microbiological properties were evaluated for 60 days at 4 °C.

Results: A reduction of 11 to 34% and 35 to 45% of fat and sodium were obtained in reformulated products, respectively.

Characterization of baru nut ( Vog) flour and its application in reduced-fat cupcakes.

Baru is a native specie from the Brazilian "cerrado" with interesting nutritional and sensory characteristics. The aim of our study was to characterize baru nut flour (BF) and to explore the possibility of producing reduced-fat baru cupcakes. Four different cupcake formulations were produced wheat flour (WF) containing 30% BF with reductions of 50 (F1), 75 (F2) and 100% (F3) margarine, compared to a control with 100% WF and 100% margarine (FC).
